[sdiy] Where to get parts?

[James Patchell]

What are you looking for?

I don't buy much at all (well nothing in fact) from radio shack...but in 
general, I can pretty much get everything I need from either Mouser or 
Digikey (I would say 99.9%).  Some things you just are not going to 
find...good example: uA726.....another example: BBD's that work good (just 
had to throw that in there for Harry :-)

But when something is not available...necessity is the mother of 
invention...so to speak...
