Have you tried Radio Shack? *Radio Shack*? Surely you jest! Are we even talking about the same store? You know, the ones that *used to* carry some components, but that nowadays you'd most likely get a blank stare from the clueless kid behind the counter if you asked for a "center-tapped pot". I doubt they ever carried center-tapped pots anyhow. You need to find a *real* electronics store (they do exist but they're getting harder and harder to find). -- The only reason corrupt Republicans rule the roost in Washington is because the corrupt Democrats can't muster any viable opposition. |

I agree many RS stores have slipped greatly, but I can usually find what I need at the local one, saving me a rush 25 mile trip to my regular wholesale house. I think it unlikely RS carried pots that didn't have a variable wiper, and my local RS has a fair selection of pots. The topic was pots, not high-quality technical clerks. Don |

You apparently misunderstand that "pot" (potentiometer) means a variable resistor with a wiper. The OP is looking for one with a center tap (a fixed connection to the resistance, not a wiper). -- The only reason corrupt Republicans rule the roost in Washington is because the corrupt Democrats can't muster any viable opposition. |

If you only need one, how about adding a centre tap to a regular one? A little silver paint from the edge of the track to an extra contact should do the job fine. Mike. |
