Very good advice, Mike. Other good distributors are listed in my tutorial and 
on the Fair-Rite website. The ham distributors whose names you recognize are 
the WORST choices -- very expensive, very high markups. I'm hoping that WX0B 
(Array Solutions) will do better. Jay said that he DOES want to sell these 
parts to hams, and he has a great reputation in the ham community.

This is the kind of pricing you should expect from a distributor for these 
parts -- BUT you've got to buy in quantity to get these prices.
