** FFS they don't make one off specials for hobbiest ******s like the OP.

They are just across the river from me, and, in point-of-fact, they do make one-offs for amateurs and hobbyists, albeit at a price.

You spend far too much time under your rock to have any understanding at all of how big and wide the world is, and how many unusual things it contains.... Including brand new multi-section twist-lock capacitors....

No use arguing with that fool. I think he just likes to spread his crap
over the group. I try not to go back to him .

I do know that they will make crystals as a one of a kind for people.
There are many on a ham radio group that have ordered from them. The
price is high , starting about $ 50 each . I never did like the Bomar
brand but have bought some from them about 40 years ago when several
companies would make almost anything you wanted. Most are out of
business now. There is a place in England that is reported to be a good
company by other hams, but their prices are still around the $ 50 mark
per crystal. I did special order a few crystals from International
Crystal just before they went out of business.
