Great lists - thank you.

I found an inexpensive source (MPJA 50 cents each or 26 cents each if you
buy 100 pcs) for LM305s (NEC cross part uPC-141CA) that are used on the
Atari AR's but the supply is limited and I ask everyone to be polite :).

Since you rebuild so many wg6100's, you might want to consider buying parts
yourself directly from a distributor to save money. If so, try my list...

Since I started using this list instead of buying the kits, I saved a lot.
