Actually yes. Among fighting corporate Real Estate this morning,
demonstrating my two fisted project management skills, and the usual
critical nonurgent at the office, we also managed to hunt down a source of
L272M's at a component firm. With any luck, 15 will be making their way to
me soon.
We could have used like LM386 or something but, I think this is easier.
They were cheap! 97 cents each.
Note: I consider a good tactical project day a "three pack habit day", ie,
running down three Companion batteries on my digital cordless over the
course of 9AM-11PM. :) It's midnight now and I'm still rolling.
