Still haven't gotten a dead 18v pack so that I can jumper a pair of car batteries into it.

Their address is somewhere on that site.
Get off the beltway in the mixing bowl (Enough to deter you from coming here.) on 395N to DC. Get off on the first exit to Edsall Rd, I think it's East. The exit should fork left saying Edsall Rd. the right saying Industrial Park. Take the Industrial Park one. After you go through the loopiness of the exit ramp continue straight and make a Right turn onto General Washington Dr. Go down this about a quarter mile and it'll be on your Left.
BTW, do you have the bill of materials for the LM 1815 VR sensor conditioner? I wanted to compare prices from several distributors.

According to my boss (We have or have had accounts at each of those distributors.) Digi-Key is more expensive in small quantity purchases, but great if you're ordering for a small factory.

well here are the finished 4x4 CF switches. We got them on Daves vert last night and these look killer. If you locals want some you wont have to pay the 8 bucks for shipping UPS.

ALSO: I've got quite a collection of parts. If you need one of something post it here or PM me and I'll see if I have it...
OH! And it's Bainesville(sp?) Electronics up on Joppa Rd

But digi-key ships so fast.. I don't know if mouser does that or not. Generally when I order from digi-key, my order arrives 2 days later with the cheapest shipping option.

2 LM1815N-ND
5 18KQBK-ND (18K resistors, all resistors have a minimum order of 5)
5 1.0MQBK-ND (1M resistors)
5 82KQBK-ND (82K resistors)
5 4.7KQBK-ND (4.7K resistors)
5 56KQBK-ND (56K resistors)
2 493-1138-ND (CAP 0.33UF 100V ELECT VR RADIAL)
2 399-1868-1-ND (CAP .01UF 100V 20% CER AXIAL)
2 399-1920-ND (CAP 330PF 100V 5% CER RADIAL)
For the board I posted a pic of a few days ago, I think you have to add this:
5 1KQBK-ND (1k resistors)
They are load resistors that go from the VR sensor ground wires to ground... If you don't have noise issues then you can get rid of them and put jumper wires in instead.

Radio shack doesn't cut it, and waiting for digi-key to ship, plus putting up with their stupid "if you spend less than $25 we're adding a $5 handling fee to your order" rule... I had to buy 2 types of resistors once.... less than $1 worth, but it cost me $10...
thanks!
