[FADCA] FW: TNC Line

[Russell Oder]

The problems MFJ is describing is effecting everything that is a few years
old in design.  It effects us as we try to find parts to repair equipment.
It has already made it difficult in Jacksonville to find electronic parts
and some of the parts I have wanted to purchase I can not find at the normal
sources, even mail order.  The electronic industry has changed considerably
in the last 10 years and it is changing everyday.
