:cry: :mad: :cussing:

Noticed that FARNELL contain RS links.

Played a bit of havok with my code to try and extract boms for each supplier out of the master file.

ALso noticed Farnell urls in RAPID columns

... also seeing in rows 194-200 *USE ABOVE in the MOUSER Column... mouser spat the dummy at that .

This is a BOM that can be uploaded to Mouser and gets almost all of the simple items.
Then for the items that are out of stock on mouser (or v expensive) you can get the remainder of the passives via rapid..
Rapid is a bit crap with BOM management.

So there are still parts not obtained but thats the Lion's share.

I understand that this isnt available anymore but is this the part required for the Cartridge port?

Not enough info to say.. but most connectors are 2.54mm.. the ST used 2mm which I already looked into it loads.. There is something which *just* works, but not right angle, and 2mm to short.

EDIT:
I assume the ST ones were all custom Atari jobs.

Ah ok. Then probably need to make a custom order with Sullins etc. Assuming that we're trying to completely recreate the ST.

I think you gave me the info where you got the Amiga connectors from, but like you said before, and I think they want to deal with individuals as I never heard back from them.

I may get Mrs TF on this case then. She's good at this sort of thing.
