[Premium-Rx] 8293 counter chip

[richardreich at aol.com]

Hello all.

Maybe a little off topic, but the life of a premium receiver (or two) depends on it...

I have been trying to find data for a 8293 binary counter, and also a source of the device. Its quite common in older premium receivers (in particular WJ).

Managed to find the datasheets after a major and lengthy trawl using Google - but no obvious source for the part.

Does anyone know a source accessible from the UK  - or a readily available equivalent?

Thanks in advance for your help.
