2n5087 substitution

[jimilee]

Gonna build another retrograde,but for some reason  I only orderd 1, and I used it on the last retrograde. Whats a suitable sunstitution for 2n5087?

BC327, 2N3906 - any generic pnp would probably work. I can drop a few 5087's in the mail for you as well.

It's PNP, right? 2N3906 is also a PNP low gain transistor.

BC560 should work also (look at the pinout).

Hey man, did I give you my address for those trannies?

[Mike B.]

You did! However, I got way sidetracked  and forgot to mail them until yesterday. Sorry about that - they should show up by Saturday.

That should have been a PM.  I was looking for the message where I sent it to you ans I couldn't find it,so I came to the conclusion that it was on me.
