In case anyone is interested, I used a piece of software called ApplePi Baker to flash my SD card w/the HeaterMeter software. It flashed the SD card just fine. (http://www.tweaking4all.com/hardware/raspberry-pi/macosx-apple-pi-baker/)
It will format and flash the card.
Ralph, thanks for noting the pin differences. Went to to Baynesville Electronics this AM and they had the NTE1904 in stock. (Thank you Steve) Got it home and noticed that the pin designations were different and the leads were too big for the holes. Determined, i soldered some wires in the socket...
Thank you. Found this place which is somewhat close to me. http://www.baynesvilleelectronics.com/index2.ivnu
They carry NTE parts. I'll call and see if they have the 1904.
While bending the lead on the MCP1700-33 the leg snapped off. Was hoping to test run on the long weekend. Is this something you can pick up at radio shack? Any other suggestions.
