Jim, Farnell Electronic Services (NOT Farnell Components) have a small number = in stock (about 35 I see). Depends on which variant of the 16C74 you are = looking for. They have 16C74-20/L in stock, I could check for others for = you if you want. I am not sure what they will charge you, I only have = the under 1000 quantity price. Should be less than 25 pounds I would = have thought. I could do them for you at around 12 pounds each for small = numbers, but I don't handle VISA yet.

Where's the best place to get PICs from in the UK? I'd sent off a cheque to HB Electronics for half a dozen 16C74s, but by the time it got there they'd sold out of them - and they say there's a 6 week lead time on getting hold of any more... I know Maplin & RS have stock, but at 30 ukp & 25 ukp respectively, they're a bit of a rip off.. Any suggestions? (preferably from a company that doesn't insist you open up an account with them, & takes VISA) Jim -- Jim Main jim@ewcomm.demon.co.uk Visit Eastwood Communications at http://www.ewcomm.demon.co.uk Broadcast Electronics & Custom Design
