In Reply to: RE: I've got a Heathkit AR-29 and need some parts for MPX board posted by Eli Duttman on October 02, 2020 at 22:30:34
You are right about Mouser, quality stuff and not too bad on prices. Realize that they, Digikey and Newark are now part of Element 14. They do have different stuff still.
Still, you are never going to find one that fits exactly. You might have to drill the board or bend the pins. However it doesn't really matter at those frequencies.
Actually you can wind your own. The formula is online somewhere for turns and diameter. But you need a core and that is where a parts place can come in handy. You have to find that first to get the permeability of it for the calculation.
After that use an LCR meter to check the value. If necessary you can add or remove turns.
Follow Ups:
Just FYI -Mouser is owned by Warren Buffett - it's a Berkshire-Hathaway company. And Digi-Key is a privately held company.
The information above is sourced from Dun & Bradstreet.
Finally, Newark Electronics is a part of the Avnet group of companies. In the Newark logo it says it's an Avnet compnay.
So the 3 firms are not related.
Edited to correct typo...

They say element 14 so they are affiliated somehow. That doesn't require they be owned.
Their only relationship is that they are all distributors/sellers of electronic parts. They are competitors, along with Allied and Arrow and some other smaller firms.
I for one miss the old MCM Electronics
ah well,
MCM was owned by the same folks as Newark. For whatever reasons (profit among them), MCM was "folded" into Newark.
Go to Parts Express for some of the stuff that used to be sourced from MCM.
