[Sneap] NIM module vendors

[Paul Voytas]

Klaus,

I would like to know what you use instead of NIM based modules. They 
always seem expensive to me also,  so I often get reconditioned modules 
from OETech (http://www.oetech.com/), but if you only need a few 
channels they seem fairly economical overall.

Regards,
