Tempco Resistor Source / Question. Was: Small quantity availability question

[Five]

Here be the response that I received from Micro-Ohm resistors.  :O :)
There's a possibility here though.  If anyone could GET the exact specs. on
the Tel Labs Q81 resistor and feed them to Micro-Ohm, there's the
possibility of much smaller order quantities. :O :)))

I myself am not buying 1000 pieces at $600 U.S. :O  :)  I could live with 50
of them, for the rest of me life. :O :)
