When ordering from Mouser, you really need their catalog. Their search really does SUCK.

They sent it to me after my first order and it's as big as a bible. Had I realized that the search was excluding things that I thought were in my search parameters I would have checked. It will be a future lesson, for sure.
I emailed them yesterday about canceling the order, but haven't heard anything as of yet.
And I hope I'm not wearing out my welcome, but does anyone have any tips for ordering monitor pots? I'd like to know how to search for them on mouser, but they have too many terms I'm unfamiliar with.
For example, when I ordered my Sanyo 20 pot kit from Bob it was for an upright and not the cocktail, so it excluded a h-hold pot that mounts parallel to the board, and not perpendicular like the rest. The leg spacing is different on that one. Also the volume pot that he includes doesn't work for cocktails either because of the leg spacing.
If someone hasn't already done the leg work...it can be daunting finding the right part. For your pots....I'd start by looking at the pictures in the Mouser catalog...next you have to look at lead spacing....sometimes there's diagrams in the catalog...sometimes you have to pull up the item's page on Mouser's online catalog, and open up the datasheet. Often times you can't get the leg spacing "just right", but get it close enough to bent the legs to fit.
