[Heathkit] SB-610 Germanium Diode Question

[jeremy-ca]

It took me about 20 seconds to find a NTE replacement on the Web. Use a NTE 
109.

In the SB-610 Monitor Scope there is a 1N191 Germanium Diode which is rated 
at 90 Volts at 500Ma. The particular Diode is hard to find fora replacement. 
Looking over simular ones i see the 1N4148 Diode which is rated at 100 
Volts, but at 200Ma which is less that the 1N191. Is the 1N4148 a good 
replacement or should i look for a higher rated Ma Diode ? Thanks & Merry 
Christmas Happy New Year.Carl, k4zrd
