I agree that the $79 pricetag would be quite acceptable, considering the quality of the circuit designs and PCB and panel. However, parts availability is a potential stumbling block: you _can't_ find a CA3080 at Mouser or Digi-Key, for example; they're no longer made. OP275s are starting to look like an endangered species also; Digi-Key has 'em but Mouser lists them as "obsolete" and their suggested substitute is not available in a DIP package. I assume that such availability issues are another reason for Paul's decisions regarding kits and SMT fabrication. Just a thought. --Adam (hoarding his extra CA3080s)
