Hi All tvden here, nice forum I am a 405 line tv collector from England can you recomend a USA supplier of High Voltage caps ?? I am looking for .001uf @ 12.5 k and .001uf@ 20k stud fixings are best, nothing over 3 k is available in England :no: many thanks..... den

Try : http://www.highenergycorp.com/ for their line. They list as a distributor:

AMS Technologies Ltd.
Electronic Division
Suite 10
33 Chapel Street
Buckfastleigh
Devon TQ11 0AB
United Kingdom
Phone - +44-1364 644295
FAX - +44-1364 644237
Territory - United Kingdom, Ireland, Scandinavia

I have no clue what the terms are, but it's a start.

I gather 'doorknobs' are hard to find over there, too? :(

Try googling around too, you might find a few others. Newark electronics used to sell 'em too, but i don't think the get much farther east than Maine ;)
