Re: Amplifone Question

Speaking of BU406D. Does anyone know where to get these any more? Mouser
can sell them for about $1.98 a piece. The only catch is you need to
order a minimum of 500! Richardason electronics was also out of stock. I
just need one or two if someone would like to sell them.

I won't even ask about the MC1
