Spoke to Radiodaze yesterday about Grill cloth...
#1

Was buying some wires, and asked about the replacement cloth.
She said that the manufacturers overseas wanted about $1M to re-engage to this line of business, which does not leave me too hopeful.
I told her that maybe several radio parts businesses need to chip in and raise that $1M; we laughed a little.
Looks like we will have to do without the replacement cloth for the nearest (and some moderately remote) future.

It sucks, gentlemen!
