I think I found it - I believe it's a Jameco part number, for the recently
maligned LM3900, or a clone thereof.

http://www.jameco.com/Jameco/Products/ProdCT/232Catalog/p072.pdf

Now it all comes back to me - a long while back, I ordered 10 CA3046's, got
these instead, and Jameco sent me the correct chips and told me not to worry
about sending these back.  Does Harry work for Jameco, BTW? =-D

So they can be used for synth stuff....  With those dual PNP's and these
chips, is there an ARP filter in my future?

Cheers,
Scott
