<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all..just wanted to update those
interested in these bargain components from crowthornetubes in the UK.. My order
arrive today.</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> The pots I got are really high
quality items. The bourns 1k pots (pity they only do 1k ) look like conductive
plastic</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> type with chrome plated spindle/mount
etc. (I think the guy says he has thousands of these in stock!)</FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2> Also the bourns multiturn (30k only) are like the 35xx series
.Also I got some spectrol multiturns.</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> They are
quite old type..long metal barrel enclosure kind, Very high quality ..but only
in 100ohm values (Doh....)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also got some nice analogue meters and blue+red MES
panels lamps. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This guy is practically giving the stuff
away..</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi everyone...just thought I would advertise a
company who are selling new old-stock</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>components at bargain prices:-</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><A
href="http://www.crowthornetubes.co.uk">http://www.crowthornetubes.co.uk</A></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>(for pics of some items check the pages <A
href="http://www.bel-tubes.co.uk">http://www.bel-tubes.co.uk</A>
)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Items include knobs, mes/les
lamps, switches, pots (including spectrol/bourns), connectors, analogue
meters</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> etc</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> that
might be of interest to synth-diy people</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>. The
stuff is ex Ministry of Defence ..some going back decades! Anyway I have
ordered some items myself..haven't received them yet so I cant say what they
are like at present. But the guy who runs the company says he has to get rid
of all the component stuff this month..so he is open to offers. If you
buy in quantity from him ..you can get massive reductions (60%) on
the prices listed on the above pages. </FONT></DIV>
