Hopefully this won't come across as tooooo ignorant a question but... in going thru the OP trannys on one of my 9090's I figured out all by myslf I really didn't know how closely the beta gains should be to each other or if there is a "limit". In this example the standard 2sc1116a varied, at 10ma bias from 56 to one that was 82. 2 were 76 and the rest were between 56 and 64........ is this something I should be looking for on a datasheet somewhere or is there an accepted variance range? All the trannys checked out in every other test I have available...... Icbo and Vcb. I've noticed "usually" brand new trannys vary some but usually within 10 points in my testing so far.
