Anything here you like?

Might have to hunt for a distributor/retailer though.

Since Erik brought it up..

I could also use a couple switches, but in my case they are for an 8800A model. (Well, it's sort-of a 'B' now as it was upgraded to the 'B' power supply, but it still has the original 'A' type D/C board).

Like the 'B' it uses mostly Mom-Off-Mom mini-toggles, with panel mount bushing, and the long solder terminals that solder directly to the PCB (not the small eyelet type). But the handles are the standard mini-toggle bat handle - not the flatted paddles Erik describes.

Any leads, feel free to mail me off-list. Thanks!

I am desperately seeking NOS, working pulls or accurate replacement
switches for my MITS 8800b.

These are flattened paddle switches, both ON-OFF and MOM-Off-MOM type. SPDT, Panel mount, solder post with a 15mm actuator. This last part is the
pain as everything I've found is 10mm or less.

I've checked every online source that I know of plus all of the local
electronics and surplus shops with no luck.

I'm sure someone here has a stash or knows someone who does. I need at least one of each type but would prefer a few more as I do have a few
marginal switches to replace if I can.

I'd even buy a complete 8800b D/C board if that's what it took.

Please email me at my webmaster@ "vintage-computer.c0m" address if you can
help.

Thank you!
