NTE gone!!
« on: September 11, 2024, 08:44:23 AM »
From EEVBlog forum

So I've heard that NTE has laid off all their staff and they nuked their website and shut down all phone lines.

Thought I might bring this to the forum.

Sources: https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/nte-going-down.1049175/

https://groups.io/g/TekScopes/topic/ot_another_one_bites_the/108096904

There isn't a whole lot of information about this. Probably because it's quite recent.

It's not much, perhaps this is all a hoax, but if this is true, wow.

Surprised there isn't a thread on the EEVBlog about this as far as I know.

Pretty soon, even the stuff on the slow boat from China will be more expensive, should the government increase the importation tariffs?

 :Scratch-Head:
Can or would USA companies start producing some of these parts again if the market was completely taken away from China? They've got it down so well that parts were quite inexpensive. Now, costs have risen considerably, even from China.
There used to be multiple stores near me in Southern California to buy parts: MarVac, OrVac, Fry's electronics, and of course the old original place for me... Radio Shack, back when they had an entire sections/rows dedicated to parts.
I feel importation tariffs should be increased for some products but that should only occur when there are already US companies ready, willing, and able to start up production. Chinese production had been optimized for a global market. Can the USA do the same thing? If so, how long will it take? The more I write, the more complicated this gets!  :hissyfit:

Now I'm glad I hung onto my old NTE cross reference manual.

I am so saddened to hear this. I have the NTE cross reference app on my ipad and I use it all the time to get datasheets and to find compatible parts. I use NTE parts a lot, I trust them.
The app opens but provides no results which indicates their database is turned off.

Digikey and other similar sources bring in have a lot of stuff but they don’t have a very good cross reference database.
