Re: Retro Chip Tester Pro, US shopping basket?
I ordered many of the parts from mouser. I also just checked the cart and some parts are now on backorder with long lead times, but may be replaceable. I may have skipped some parts if I had them in stock, so you would want to compare the cart against the BOM, and also I may have ordered more parts than necessary in some places to round out the quantity to the nearest price break. At least it could be a starting point and might save a bit of time.
