I've got a batch of BC182 transistors in that package. According to Towers, they should be in a TO92 package, but these ones aren't. No idea who the manufacturer might be, but I've seen plenty of devices in that package over the years - all silicon types...
If this is an AM-only radio, I don't imagine the exact type is in any way critical, and I'm sure we could suggest many alternatives. It would be nice to identify the radio in a bit more detail first.
The obvious question to the OP is this: what makes you believe that these transistors are faulty? Transistors are very reliable in general. What are the symptoms?
All the best,
Mark
