It would appear that the MC3346 is out of production.  I just searched for 
it at the On Semiconductor website (Motorola is no longer in the 
semiconductor business).  I came up with 0 hits.  The only thing that the 
CA3046 really had going for it was it's cost...you can (still) get them for 
$0.50 which is a real good price for a part that performs as well as it does.
