Hello, I thank you for your suggestions. I was looking at the NT 2354 for possibility. I have heard of mcm. I didn't bother checking with them. I figured if mouser or jameco didn't stock it, they wouldn't. I now added them to my vendor list thank you! So is there some give away to look for to spot a cheap nte? I thought all net's were unique... that you couldnt get cheap ones or good ones. Regards, Chad.
