Looking to identify a substitute for the two transistors pictured.
Thank you!
Hello @liamkuehn,
The 2SC374 is a vintage Japanese transistor. It was marketed as a general-purpose transistor with a high gain (250 to 1000). It crosses to an NTE199 with an ECB pinout.
Links:
Recommend a BC547C variant.
Unfortunately, this is not a clean substitution. The BC547 has a CBE pinout. I’ve done this before with a bit of twisting it works.
Depending on the value of the radio you may want to search online auctions for an exact replacement.
Best wishes,
APDahlen
P.S. I sure do miss NTE.

Please allow me to clarify:
The NTE199 has a pinout of ECB. It possible that your 2SC374 has a different pinout.
Unfortunately, I have been unable to locate the pinout for the 2SC374.
Hopefully other will be able to assist.
Sincerely,
Aaron
