John,
I forget what the cost is for the connectors. It seems we might have
almost enough interest to buy 25, particularly if people buy more
than one. I personally would be willing to buy several.
What is the G&A for purchasing one lot, aside from
transportation charges? Is it small, medium, large? Is a lot of 25
simply too small to futz with?
Anybody else think similarly?
Regarding the time investment conflict that you currently have, is
there anything that anyone else (perhaps myself) can do do to help?
I am not in a particular hurry, but the longest journey, etc.
Cheers,
Dave

They're a custom from me that fits well and doesn't let
card edge fingers slide sideways and cross
signal wires. Pledges to buy 25 units are needed to
reorder a production batch efficiently.
It's going to be slower selling more than 25 this time
until some kind of advertising is done,
since all the pent up demand on this list was satisfied by
the 160 kits sold so far.
TM500 kits had no pent up demand. They have not recovered
their costs yet...

We can talk. If smb edge launch pcb connectors can be
bought cheaply, that might work well enough.
Costs and selling price matters quite a lot to the
Tektronix-repairing public though.
Here are some new list server addresses for such
discussions of boring components
that don't interest many Tek scope users:
