Oh no!!!!  At least you can still buy discrete JFETs and bipolar
transistors, build an oscillator, and either build or buy a diode
ring mixer.  If you really want gain in front of the mixer, you
can use another discrete transistor to build a preamp....

There was talk here a while back about Digi-Key selling
NE602s.  They are out of stock now and don't plan to
restock.  (If someone else has already noted this here,
sorry for the extra post.)

I picked up a couple last week at RF Parts, San Marcos CA.
See ads in QST, etc.

A company here in Scottsdale stocks a great many RF-related ICs and
some transistors, and their customer service is superb.   They're
called DC Electronics, on Scottsdale Road. (I don't have an address or
phone for them here at the office, but they're in directory
assistance.)  By all means get their catalog.  I've bought most of my
NE602s from them, as well as the Motorola RF chips like the MC3362 and
MC2833.

One of the reasons the NE602 is unavailable is that higher dynamic range
NE602A units are coming out!  The newer units have larger printed letters
than the older units.  Just how much better the newer units are to be is
a question I have as well!  73  Cliff Buttschardt  W6HDO Morro Bay, CA
