FT-240-61 cores. Amidon was $9/ea, Mouser (for the Fair Rite equivalent) was
$14/ea. I was only ordering six cores so I couldn't make anyones quantity break.
Digi Key I don't think has many of the larger cores, but they have a *lot* of
the smaller PCB-size stuff. I'm liking that my "regular" component suppliers
are starting to carry more magnetics generally though :-)
