Yet another loss ?

I was looking for an IC which has been discontinued, the XR2211 / NJR2211 tone decoder / PLL.  I looked in the usual places and have found some but then I thought: "what about NTE Electronics ?"

So I tried them and the site won't open.  I tried checking the is it down page:


Then I tried a search and found this:

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/nte-no-more

The site was indeed regularly backed up on Archive, the last being August 1, 2024.  So maybe the hosting / URL ran out at the end of July ?

Anyway, yet another parts vendor lost for electronic parts for repair or replacement.  Bummer
