Howard et al,

My amp rep called the factory and found out the following:

It IS (of course) a custom part.
It is NOT proprietory
It IS available, but there is the dreadded minimum purchase 
quantity.  
I was advised that a local distrubuter listed the number as a
good part number, but had zero stock.  This indicates to me 
that someone somewhere may have a few collecting dust.

For your info the number is:

AMP 2-532431-0 for the plug in boards
AMP 2-532433-0 for the motherboard

I am interested in picking up a few, but my needs were never
enough to justify a factory build.  (about $500 worth)


Let me know if you learn more.

cul,
