Historical Background

 

Raytheon was the leading supplier of the first transistors to hearing aid manufacturers, starting in 1952.  These  first Raytheon transistors were black epoxy cased units, labeled as CK718.  Transistor technology was developing rapidly and the next generation of smaller metal cased units appeared in 1955.  Still further size reduction and improved performance resulted in the 1957 vintage units labeled as CK782, 3, 4 or 5.  Surplus CK78X transistors were encapsulated inside larger blue or silver metal cases and marketed as the popular CK722 hobbyist transistor.  Use these transistors as “mini-CK722s” – the performance is identical!
