Well, the TL607 was discontinues in the late 1980's so I don't think
anyone is going to have 15 year old inventory laying around. Probably
a good idea for more current obsolet components.

For entertainment value, the best quote so far is $5/chip with a 35
piece minimum, plus shipping. Grand total is about $170. Kinda
expensive to fix a $300 piece of test equipment. However, I may have
to take it if I can't find another source.

Grumble, grumble...
