Subject: Going to try 248Js/Shopping cart upgrade
From: "Paul Schreiber" <synth1@...>

I found 20pcs of the metal-shaft Spectrol log pot 248J-9-10-104 to try out. If
they are OK, I will order a 2-year supply :)
I have used the plastic shaft version and found the rotating torque excessive.
I really do not want to redo the pc boards and I certainly refuse to pay $12.25
per pot.
I now have over 650 Spectrol 149 cermet pots in stock. That should last a while
:)
I did check Switchcraft 112A prices and knob prices. Both went up. So in a few
months the cost of the assembled modules and some of the Accessory offerings
will rise slightly. The price I am seeing for the log pots is about $1.30 more
than the 149 cermets and so I'll guess a $20 increase per module overall seems
about right when factoring in all 3 price increases. Good news is the Power One
supplies held flat within 3% so I bought 30 of them today from Allied to be
delivered tomorrow.
Lastly: running low on 3-pot Stooge brackets, getting quotes for more to be
made. Expect price to jump up to about $8ea due to increase in stainless steel
prices last 12 months.
I will start the shopping cart upgrade process starting tomorrow. This is
mandatory to fix the new International USPS rates and services. It requires
messing with MySQL, if anyone has experience on backing up MySQL tables
(export/import) using phpMyAdmin please contact me off-line.
