The search function is your friend! He is a friend that loves to be used and abused! He is the sort of friend that you can rely on to pick you up drunk at any time of the night. What sort of a friend are you? He likes being used, an you wont use him! What kind of friend does that..? A bad one! :x

:lol:

Sorry, was bored! But as above Speco make em to order through most parts stores, or I may soon go into making a few digital ones from Jaycar kits. :wink: Not too sure yet but. The Jaycar ones look like...

Jaycar is an electrical supplier similar to the old dicksmith/tandy that have kits you can make yourself.
I made one of the ones pictured with out too much trouble, for about $60 from memory.
if you want one and can't get it, there's a jaycar 30 sec from my work so i could post it for you.

I wouldn't recommend undergoing building one unless you have had previous fine tip soldering practice as they are easy to make go up in smoke. As i said, i may soon produce a few of these to sell (pending interest etc.) but if you feel confident with building it yourself, and have had experience, it shouldn't be too hard. The good thing about these is they have so many features and are fairly high tech in a simple package. :wink:

Yeah me too, but i don't have the money to front up and buy them. if some one paid in advance, i'd happily put it together in a few days for them.
