Actually today would be a good day. Get them before the prices go up...

This I get kinda the theory behind it but I think you've hit the nail on the head. "Come build a factory in the US, we'll make it financially good for you, and our power means you will always be able to export" makes sense - especially as we're over reliant on Taiwan for semiconductors. But this feels mad. If I were the EU/UK I would be going, offering the same deal but promising free trade with markets in china/brazil and india so you can make the chips cheaply and export easily.... It might cost the host country a bit, and not raise much in taxes, but you'ld gain the semiconductor manufacturing capabilities....

Autofilter will also get you there or thereabouts with some fiddling

So even worse than my DIY clone?!

I think we started off at “compact” a few posts ago…

I imagine Krispn would say "I love it so much that I mount it straight on my board. Everything I'm on the fence about goes on an angle, but the for the Simone, I got my set square out."

Similar topology to a SHO? with a tone pot and germanium transistor

Od-200 surely?

It's alright, avoid the copyright strike then repackage stuff as 'TC Electronics' and all will be forgiven.
