[TenTec] Omni-C & Spare Parts

["Mark Rauchfuss" <mark.rauchfuss@worldnet.att.net>]

I recently came into a good deal for an Omni-C, matching VFO and power supply 
and so picked same up. 

When the boxes were unpacked, I noticed a 2N2222 transistor (TO-5)  laying on 
the floor. It has not been soldered into a board (leads not tinned) but perhaps 
it was mounted on a socket (?). It obviously came out of one of the boxes. 

The question I now have is where did it come from and what does it do? At the 
present time, I don't have a manual for this station and would like to know 
what this transistor does before I turn it on.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Comments very much appreciated.
