Hi Larry!!

     You be shoppin' in da wrong place!!!  Mouser has LOTS of stuff for 
a buck a piece.  For that matter I have anything you want.  Send me a 
note off list with values and voltages and I'll fix you up.  Got 
HUNDREDS of 22@ 450 on the shelf and in either axial or radial leads.
> Why are electrolytic capacitors so expensive?  Even the newer Aluminum are out of this world.  I am looking for a 20 @ 450V and a 50 and 150V.  One is $17 and the other is either $25 or $38 for single quantities.  Almost to expensive to fix and sending them in to Hayseed would run around $30 ea also.  This is for a real nice Gates Modulation Monitor with a pair of nice big meters on the front, one for reading transmitter on or off frequency values and the other is for modulation.
