It has been well documented that a transistor can be used as diode In this graph, you can clearly see that a 1N2326 germanium diode has very similar characteristics in dropping voltage behavior when compared with a Russian MP20 germanium russian transistor

Red is is the 1N2326 Brown is the MP20 transistor (collector and base are tied together as the cathode1N2326_pic.jpg
 
nice, if you need the characteristic.
It seems nowadays, some people found out buying NEW germanium diodes, what they actually got was Schottky diodes which was not wanted.....

Anyway this is a graph from a DCA75 component tester? I like the thing.:)
