There's one in College Park, a few km north of UMd., that deals more in small parts (I found out just yestiddy that Eli's doesn't stock chips, which leaves Radio Shyster, who's out of LM311's, so I'm in the comparator-building business for a few days...) than in remaindered equipment. --Blair "'course, there's always the Yellow Pages..."
