Hello again fellow netlanders.

I'm interested in building a couple of low-noise high-gain
vhf-uhf preamps, and have been told that MMIC's are great
little devices for such purposes, since they are stable, and
most configurations require but a few external components.

I've searched through all my catalogs, Digi-Key, Mouser,
Newark, etc.. and there is no mention of MMIC's in any
of them.  My question for some knowledgable person(s)
on the net is:  Where can I find: 1) a source of MMIC's
and 2) some information, and possibly circuit ideas on
the pratical application of these devices.  If I knew 
the name of a manufacturer, I could call on them for info,
but I'm totally in the dark here.  Can some kind soul
help me out?

Thanks very much!
