Yeah, you MIGHT find it locally, & MAYBE a tad cheaper, but yr local yokel prolly wouldn't have it in stock, & would likely spend a lot of time on the phone tryin' to find it for you. Often as not, He'd just get it from McMaster or Grainger's as well... THAT happened to me on several occasions, when I was just a Cub purchasing agent...(Grin)

Exactly, Grainger and McMaster-Carr is your best friend for many things we need in this hobby (and a broadcast engineer's best friend). SandyG is right on this one. Grainger is for the ones which get it done, commercial out of the way!!!!
