HI,
Is this a 'real' 1N34A and not a Schottky or something else. Reason I ask is there are a lot of fakes out there in the marketplace.
Thanks Phil (KO6BB)

Hi, this is a genuine 1N34A and not a Schottky diode. We do not and will not sell fake parts in any form.

Just what I needed
Wow! Just like my crystal radio of my youth. This diode worked
great in the radio circuit and it sure took me back! Great product and I'm happy I coud find this item on your online store. Thanks!
