Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The BC461 transistor can have a current gain of 40 to 250. The gain of the BC461-4 will be in the range from 40 to 70, for the BC461-5 it will be in the range from 60 to 130, for the BC461-6 it will be in the range from 115 to 250.The complementary NPN transistor to the BC461 is the BC441.You can replace the BC461 with the 2N5323 or BC161.
