Just looked today at some of the other suppliers. DigiKey & Newark want a minimum order of a 100 caps. Mouser today is out of stock, I tried their shopping cart and it took an order of 4. Think it was a 10 week wait. YMMV

Is there some reason not to buy sm 200 pf from JustRadios for 89 cents each?  Of course, they have min order of $20 but there’s always something else you might want. Dan
