Can anyone provide some part #'s for these one chip FM TX & RX IC's? I'm
interested too.
MC2831A, MC2833, MC13175, MC13176. i got samples of one of 'em a long
time ago, but as i said in another post, motorola sold the Mosaic line
to either Micro-Semi or On Semi. either way, it's hard to pick a chip
for an app without the data sheet. before you ask me to scan and e-mail
them to you, tell me how to get my HP scanjet 3c to run on w2k and XP.
HP doesn't even know how to make work on win9x. the website has software
for 9x, but they fail to mention that you have to install DOS software
first. That doesn't work with NT systems like 2k/XP.
Well, thanks for the part numbers. It does help since Motorola,
Microsemi and Onsemi all deny knowledge of these chips existence (at
least on their web sites).
I'll note Ocean state electronics has
datasheets for most of those, and appears to stock some. I've never
dealt with them, but they came up on a google search. 
I'll keep an eye out for these or similar at the BRATs hamfest later
this month, thanks.

Phone up Cricklewood Electronics (London). They do have stocks of
several of the hard to get hold of Moto semiconductors.
If you download their price list from their web site, beware that the
prices may be out of date (this caught me out when I placed an order and
some parts had gone up in price).
One of the people in this establishment wins no prizes for his "customer
service" and has been a little awkward (there's probably a better word).
