Is there any modern application which uses the now-forgotten UJT transistors?
And what about a manufacturer that still makes it (except NTE, obviously, which
probably makes them for replacements)?
NTE doesn't make anything. They buy a hundred thou of the cheapest
transistor and buff/grind off the logo and label, and relabel them to
their NTE number.
UJTs have never been common, just not used as much since the 555 has
been out.

PUNCTUATION - Apostrophe
Incorrect uses: (i) the apostrophe must not be used with a plural
where there is no possessive sense, as in ~tea's are served here~;
(ii) there is no such word as ~her's, our's, their's, your's~.
Confusions: it's = it is or it has (not 'belonging to it'); correct
uses are ~it's here~ (= it is here); ~it's gone~ (= it has gone);
but ~the dog wagged its tail~ (no apostrophe).

I bought some batteries, but they weren't included,
so I had to buy them again.
