Hi everyone,<br>
I had a question about this very thing (NTE parts). The place
where I work has a stock of NTE ICs that are used for repairs. I was
under the impression that NTE sold parts that were "borderline" in
terms of the original part specs. Is this true? What about ECG (is ECG
still around?) or Radio Shack parts? Are they sub-standard in any way? <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

I am also dubious about the quality of parts that NTE sells...definitely<br>correct me if I am wrong in my impression...<br><br>As far as the other in the list...I have never noticed anything<br>significantly different between the major manufacturers.
