CQ ON-land: sourcing electrolytic capacitor for QCX-mini patch


Jean-Marc Meessen (ON4KJM)
 

Hello,

Anyone in Belgium with a source of suitable electrolytic capacitor (preferably via (traditional) mail)? I only see 5 x 11mm ones on my local supplier's online catalog.

Hi,
I've got a bunch of 10u/25V (4mm x 8mm) tantalum caps here in the Netherlands.
Sending you one is no problem at all.

Interesting links, Guido. Will bookmark them.

But a quick search didn't yield electrolytics capacitors that are 8mm long. The models that I have seen are 11mm long. I'll recheck tonight and if no luck I will ping the Dutch OMs. Anyway, when the pack arrives (Friday or Monday) it has to go, un-opened, under the Christmas tree. So no stress, no hurry: I don't plan to die in the coming days :-)

I'm not in Belgium, but maybe you could find a source like mine. It was a telephone answering machine...There are a few 10ufs and some 22ufs.

I bought mine from Mouser and they were still too thick so I found some10uf Tantalums and fit with room left over.
