> Try the beginner hobbyist shops. That's pretty vague considering that I've never seen one. Got anything more specific? I live in a city with a fairly big tech sector, so we have an "Active" (part of FAI, www.future-active.com ) and an Electrosonic (www.e-sonic.com) branch, as well as a few other places (I don't know how far Intek extends, and I'm pretty sure that RPE is a local operation with no other branches.) The closest thing to "beginner hobbyist shops" we have is RPE (www.rpelectronics.com). --Brendan -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
