Is there anywhere in Orlando that you can buy electronic compnents other than Skycraft? They usually have something that will work, but sometimes they don't and I have to wait for stuff to ship and pay $5-$7 for shipping. Is there some place like mouser or digi-key in the Orlando area?

Mike & Glen-
I think there is also a Newark Electronics office in the Orlando area. You might call them and see what they have.

There is (or was) also a place called All Electronics in Winter Springs. The owner ran a repair shop in the same building. I went in there a few years ago, and they refused to sell me a part because he had a minimum order policy, even for over the counter retail sales.
Acme looks like it's a mail order only operation, and their shipping is 11.99 on small orders.
Vance-Baldwin used to have a listing in the Orlando phone book, but they're not in the latest one. I don't know if they still have their Orlando office or not.
The last over-the-counter, retail, electronic parts place I know of in Orlando disappeared about 4 or 5 years ago. It evolved into a computer shop, now I think it's completely gone.
