Apparently the owner/operator was in an accident. Unknown for how long it will be like this.

This is old news. Owner Jerry Vogt was incapacitated in an accident in 2016 and died in November 2017. The website has not been updated since the accident.

Jerry and his wife Joan ran the business out of their house so it was strictly mail order even for locals. The last time I had any contact with Jerry was several years ago when they advertised a sale of boxes of assorted excess parts inventory at very low prices. I suspected at the time they were phasing out the business due to their age and they just seemed to offer remaining stock items after that.

They had well designed items at reasonable prices and were great to deal with. I especially liked their helical resonator filter products.
