[600MRG] Preamp transistors

[david vanhorn]

I'm looking for a very good preamp transistor for a loopstick antenna
project.
This will be a common emitter amplifier.
NPN, SOT23 or very similar, and as low a noise as I can get.
I will have less than 3V to work from.
I'd like to keep the collector current below 2mA if possible.
Impedance coming into the amp will be about 4 ohms.
Currently using BC847C, but it's proving rather noisy at 690uA collector
current.

Any recommendations?
