Texas,
By no means was I poo poo'ing your deal on wire. Sounds fantastic. If I didn't have the source I have I'd jump all over it. Fortunately I work for a large Avionics Mfg. and can buy some supplies from their engineering stock at what amounts to their cost. Often it's a great deal cheaper than other retail sources. On a few select items however it is cheaper to buy retail.
I know that we all don't have these sources and I'm thrilled that everyone is willing to share their resources with everyone here. Makes me feel better about making the plunge into this aspect of the hobby.
By the way, I've got a hunk of multi-line phone cable that I will be using for quite some time in the future for all of my other "quick fix" or "homebrew" projects that I have.
Thanks again.
John
