[Tech-Assist] MRF

[David Wall]

Don't buy components from MCM.  Buy them from Digi-Key.  They will give you an account and keep you on their list.  They ship same day and you can get parts the next day, if you want.

  Some of the transistors MCM sells are FAKE!  (C1969 etc) And I've received
  parts from them that could not work.
  To their credit, they always uncharged me for those, but NOT FOR THE TIME
  it took to isolate the real problem.  The TRANSISTOR.
