I have had constantly good luck buying parts from Tayda, but they do not have a USA warehouse. All from Thailand via Hong Kong.
Great company. Not sure how tariffs will affect them, so I just received a large order!

Hey,
I was thinking of getting some parts from Tayda Electronics.? I think they have a warehouse also in the US but not sure if all the parts I need are there.

I think some of you have gotten those D882 transistors before and had good luck with them?
US $ 0.14 each.
?
And get some heat sinks for the D882 transistors above but also those 2SC5706 I got from kits and parts.? But not sure about the packaging of either of those.? So, not sure what heat sinks where work for either of them.

Some trimmer capacitors too. I think Steve buys his from there and they work for him.

Question - good place to get NG0 / CG0 good quality capacitors for VFO and filters right now?
?
Sure, I got a value boxes of capacitors off Amazon and I checked them and they seem to be in range of their stated tolerance.? But when it comes to a VFO and filters, I think better quality capacitors are needed.
