I'm not affiliated with these organizations but a sale on components is always nice. Pedalhacker sent me the following email with a note from SBE: "Dear Pedalhacker Community, Our team here at Small Bear Electronics is super excited to add Pedalhacker's components inventory to our own ever-growing catalog.

As a long-time supplier of pedal parts, we understand how important it is for small pedal makers, repair technicians, and pedal-lovers to have access to smaller quantities of rare parts. With our usual shipping within 24 hours and multiple quality control checks to minimize shipping mistakes, we hope to become your favorite resource for everything from knobs and enclosures to diodes and old-stock transistors.

As a thank you for trusting us with this project, we're offering 15% off your first Small Bear Electronics order of $25 or more. Sign in or create a customer account, and use the code PEDALHACKER at checkout. You can find the full Pedalhacker inventory here (https://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/expanded-inventory/?syclid=ctuq8lu317jc73d2keq0)."

I started with BYOC (and GGG) kits in 2007. I think I've built all the things from both. I wish Keith and his clan well, too.

The way the red looks like splattered blood over the other colors instead of ink emulsion with the other colors is incredible.

Things are getting better. The home page remembers me being logged in, and I'm still logged in when I navigate back to it, and I can see the hosted support forums now when none of this was working for me yesterday. Keep tinkering!

When on the homepage, it indicates I haven't logged in with options for login or signup. When I come to this thread, it shows me logged in at the top left of the page. I also can't see the content headings for members - just the links for the general pop open to everyone. Glad you're back up. Looking forward to full functionality.

I started out with BYOC and General Guitar Gadgets kits. There tends to be more off board wiring of pots in the GGG projects. The BYOC documentation for their kits is awesome. From building several Aion PCB projects, I can only imagine what a cinch it would be to assemble one of Kevin's kits. It looks like John Popper had quite the rig
(https://www.modernbluesharmonica.com/board/board_topic/5560960/773179.htm), but the last post is a decade old.

I found my harps (Lee Oskar) play well with modulation, but they didn't like boosts, overdrives, and distortion fx. I use a Shure green bullet into a Weber 5F2H amp. I could've had an input impedance issue, but I never followed through to learn why no signal passed through on harp when those pedals worked fine on guitar with that amp...

Let us know what kit you decide to build.

Rej,
Glad to see you're back.
Still have my some of the cache of BC109Cs I bought from you way back when...
Would love to get my hands on some Mu series PCBs whenever you figure out what you've got laying around.
Cheers,
Wes

My 7- and 9-year-old girls can be happy as clams playing Legos together. 5 minutes later, they've got the Wii nunchucks and are using them on each other to make Bruce Lee proud instead of playing the game!

General Questions / Re: TO-5 sockets, cheap/best version
November 16, 2022, 02:42:03 AM
I use these 40 pin SIP sockets from Tayda (https://www.taydaelectronics.com/connectors-sockets/sockets/sip-sockets/30-pin-dip-sip-ic-sockets-adaptor-solder-type.html). At $0.39, the price can't be beat. I know the link says '30-pin' but they're 40s.

Tight squeeze. Out of curiosity: What size enclosure is that?

2 days from TX to AZ with USPS. 70 days with UPS. Just received order today. UPS Mail Innovations only 10 to 14 days on eBay components from overseas even when going through customs. Normal UPS orders from Mouser arriving on time and fine since Mail Innovations snafu. I had a similar problem during lockdown and Mouser stepped-up and also replaced it at their cost. So, you weren't the only one in the forum, and I'm glad this saga is over for us... Happy building!

@ m-Kresol
Sorry I dropped the ball...
Mouser still has plenty of those chips: https://www.mouser.com/c/semiconductors/audio-ics/audio-amplifiers/?q=2181
