[Boatanchors] aNOTHER LONG-SHOT REQUEST

[J. Forster]

You could try a simple test setup with a battery (like 3V) a collector
current limiting resistor (2.2K) and milliammeter (0-5mA) and another
resistor (20K) and switch to inject base bias...  a simple common emitter
amp and three clip leads to the transistor. Just try all 6 possible
connections to find the one w/ the best Beta. Look for the biggest change
in collector current when the bias is switched on and off.

FWIW,
-John
