I cannot source a vintage 10DE Axial Diode, does anyone have the spec for one which will help me source an equivalent?

10de doesn't appear to ever have existed, do you have a picture

Is it a small signal, possibly germanium diode Andr'e? Where in the circuit is it?

I'll take a photo tomorrow, ive personally never encountered this Diode model number! No not a signal Diode it's part of a vintage TT tonearm auto cue circuit.

Not read the datasheet, but the title says its a 1.5 or 2.0 amp silicon rectifier diode.

Where is it in the circuit? If it just part of the bridge you could use any std type diode like an IN400x series.

Whats it in and have you got a pic. I might have something suitable (age/authentic) I've removed from something.

Thanks Ian
As stated it's in a Tonearm cue circuit. I've bought some '20D' (2A) instead of the original '10D' (1.5A).

Jobs a gud un loike..

Ian I just tried your link to you web page and got this site instead, why?

Now tried twice, third time OK just a note.

Thanks for letting me know.....I'll take a look. I suspect it's the web ring code that's causing a redirect grrrrr

Looking for info on another vintage Diode. A rectifier Diode 'SU-1-02' Anyone??
