Maybe -33xx also. Advanced has a part "builder" page to help figure out exactly what part is needed. These places appear to have access to them: http://www.semitrade.com/electronic-components/KS628-51TT-RTV-distributors http://www.biscoind.com/cgi-bin/bbxpsearchnew.cgi?PART=KS628-50TG http://www.esbparts.com/part.asp?search=KS628-04TG&sname=PNS&type=E&mfrfilter=34779 http://www.asapsemi.com/requestquote.asp?id=KS628-51TT-RTV&mfr=ADVANCE%20ELECTRONICS (I'll have to leave it in your hands to decide which of these is legit; they all look reasonable to me) How CMD went about attaching them to the JiffyDOS board, I am not sure. I assume they stuck plain old header pins through the board, jammed the Peel-A-Ways onto them from the bottom and soldered into place.
