Yes, sorry, 2N3866. Bad typing!. There's a load of them set loose in amateur radio QRP circles, carrying the marking 4-247 and a motorola batwings logo in case you come across any. Lots of people took loads, but they all seem to have gone into stashes rather than getting used. About 10,000 transistors in the UK vanished like pouring water into a desert. I'd expected them to be popping up all over the place in projects etc.
