Radio Shack wants $6 for a male to two female 1/8" phone plug adapter.
I revolted because i need several but on the web i keep running into
3.5 mm.

1/8" = 3.175 mm so i take it there is some kind of European standard to
that is similar but not the same?

So two questions, is this the same?

Where on the net can i find 8 of them cheap, if anywhere?

You get more-or-less what you pay for. At Radio Shack, you're paying for
packaging and the promise that you can bring it back.

Morely,

$1 each! .... but ....
Packaging: Bulk Part Only*
Each Pallet Has: 2500 Units

Few more than what i need. Thanks for the response tho. Damn, the
markup on these things that Radio Shack gets is a lot higher than what
i even imagined. I'm in the wrong business.

terry.
