I doubt that leaded components will ever go out of fashion not while we have China and Russia knocking huge amounts of parts. We can still get thermionic devices brand new so never fear the good old
Hi Ken it was still there at 20:15 cos I bought a couple, it seems to be on the Irish eBay not the UK one which is strange for a Rossendale address. http://cgi.ebay.ie/RF-Matrix-PadBoard-149x114x1-6-

SMT is not that bad ... Pre-heating the board first is a good move ..pre heater ? , well domestic IRON is a nice size flat plate , tem controlled as well .. synthetics ? cotton may be too hot (no ste
sri - SMT has been around for more than a quarter of a century . Mustn't discriminate, it must qualify as ancient too :-) I worked on, I think, the first satellite to use SMT construction in spa

Hi Stefan and all others. Thank you for your most useful replies, the reasons I asked this question are as follows, firstly I was hoping to construct one this weekend possibly from components in my s
It won't be long before leaded components become unavailable. Certainly the useful modern ones that actually do teh job that's wanted. I've compared availability and prices in the Farnell catalogu
Hello Ken, as far as I know, the 2SK170V could be a good candidate. Best regards Daniele From: Ken <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, December 29, 2010 5:58:31
Hello Danielle, Lately I have ordered some parts from the RS branch in the Netherlands. BNC connectors were delivered from their UK warehouse. BFQ-149 transistors came from a RS warehouse in France.
Hi Ken, I have not tested other JFETs so far. Is it just because of the SMD housing? I don't use a SMD PCB but a "free air" soldering. So if this is the problem, just solder the FETs legs directly on
Hello Ken, I bought the BF862's at RS Italy. The sell them in 10x strips. May be you could try and see if RS UK have the same policy. Best regards Daniele From: Ken <[email protected]> To:
