*Heathkit* used a ****load of them in EVERYTHING they made. They were in
the 2 meter radios as a mixer and front end, even in the TVM's
(Transistorized Volt Meters). The early solidstate "VTVM" (I know..they had
tubes in them) but Heathkit had a solidstate one and they used it as a meter
amplifier...Eddie

I have a small quantity of RCA 40673 mosfets for anyone interested. I
will sell them for $2.50 each. These are NOS and I am selling them at
half the market value. If you get them through NTE they are over $11.00
or you get them through Dan`s small parts (if he has any) at$5.00 each.
Thanks, Rob
Thank`s for all the replies!! I have sold them and I am going to try to
scronge some more. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!!

If you must replace a defective 40673 in an existing design this is a
good deal. However, these parts are dated and not that great by modern
standards. You can buy much better (though only in SMT) parts which
are still in production--such as the BF998--for a few cents each.

So, for replacement, yes, but why anyone would use them in a new
design or an adaptation of an old design is a mystery...but of course,
tubes still seem to attract some folks, too...
