Datasheets for 2N3588?

[beans_amps]

Anybody have any info on these trannies?  Looks like an AC128.  Four legs though.  NTE says PNP Ge RF/IF amp.  No other data.  I cannot find anything else.

TIA

Wow ... seems like there is very little info available! I'm sure you've seen this page but anyway...

will help with basic parameters.

One of my old data books lists equivalents as AF106 and AF109R and AF306, for what that is worth (pins may differ).

Thanks all,

I ran across a small stash of these (five or six) but I dont know it they are worth the trouble.  I also got a small quantity of 2N2933's and a few others.

I may try to cobble up something with these 3588's to see how they work.  Beta seems to be quite low (~25).

Have fun
