potentiometer needed

[Haible Juergen]

Got a package from Farnell today - big disappointment:
One potentiuometer I needed for my Taurus VCF / VCA / EG
is not available anymore.
The original Taurus uses a 50k reverese audio pot for resonance.
Farnell used to have a dual 100k reverse audio type, and I intended
to use the two halves in parallel.

Now getting a revese audio pot is hard enough, but not impossible.
But the situation is worse: I have already finished much of the mechanic
stuff, that is I *need* the pot in exactly the same mechanical shape.

It's a PCB mount, with the shaft axis 10mm above the PCB surface.
ALPS type RK14K124, 100k reverse log. (Farnell order code 919-196)
I think other manufacturers make pots of a similar physical size, but
I don't know a source where I can get them. (14mm pot with mounting bracets,
7 single in line pins for the stereo pot, 10mm axis height)

Can anybody help ?
Another source for this type of ALPs pots in Europe ?
Another brand of pots that would fit in ?
Anybody has one or two he would like to sell ?

I'm prepared to use an ordinary 100k log pot with maximum Resonance
in CCW end position, if I don't find anything else. Fortunately I have not
made the front panel design yet !
But it seems Farnell has discontinued the ordinary 100k log pots
of this size as well. I've ordered 3 ones, and got the last 2 they had!  :-(

Thanks,

JH.


PS.: I know about combining resistors and linear pots - it does *not*
         work in this case. I'm really looking for this exact physical size
pot.
