I can see clearly there is a small spring wire connected to small germenium chip. If I soldered the diode more than two or three, I guessed cause of this heat the spring wire will loss its spring feature and will not work. Also after 15 or 20 or 30 years it might not work due to its weak design (spring system). Am I right?
Today I collected 10ths of very old germenium diodes from very old radios of 1960s or 70s. Suspecting their functionality because of its long age. Add something please!
