SCHEMATIC
TRANSISTORS
You can use either germanium (Q2 AC128, Hfe 60-80 and Q3 AC128, Hfe 100-120) or silicon (2N3906) transistors. Refer to the figures below for the correct orientation of the transistors.
TRANSISTOR SOCKETS
For easy swapping and experimentation, use either 3-PIN HEADERS or dedicated transistor sockets.
