:evil: Has anyone had trouble getting repair parts for Texas Star lately? I've searched high and low and all my vendors stock has dried up. Only basic parts are being found. I'm needing to order a couple pc boards for 667.

A lot of electronic components have been depleted over the last 9 months, but I’m not one to be pointing the blame.

I just hope it's not a sign of things to come where Texas Star is on there way out. That would be a shame.

Texas Star was one of the first amps I got as a teenager back in the early 90s. I know there alot of the out there but to see a day where you cannot buy new amps or even parts would be just sad. I hope there parts are just stuck in one of those containers out in the ocean waiting to come to port.
