Years ago I was under the impression that AMP and Amphenol were the
same thing.  That was until I called AMP to get a price quote on an
Amphenol connector.  Oops!  The AMP person politely but firmly
"corrected" me to embarrasment. :-)

So, to avoid your own red-face syndrome:  
Amphenol, 2122 York Rd, Oak Brook IL 60521 
AMP Inc, Harrisburg PA 17055  717-564-0100
