Diode - equivalent?

I need to replace a diode on an old PCB, the existing one being a

1N100

What's a suitable modern equivalent to this please? It's part of a video output circuit.

Thanks

It's germanium, so one of the key things is to find a germanium diode to replace it.

NTE is an outfit that sells replacement components for electronics repair. They cross-reference a 1N100 to their NTE109.

Look on their website for a distributor or retailler near you. Frequently their product is also sold in radio/television repair shops too, so your part may be just a short drive away. You might be able to get it within the hour, rather than waiting for shipping.

Good luck Chris

Here are 3 equivalents according to my old reference books: AA118, OA95 and 1N618.

Whether any of them are easy to obtain is another matter!
