This is true.  Wenzel is a small shop that really tries to be helpful. 
For example, I've asked them for details on surplus oscillators that 
have a custom part number.  They won't give you data for that exact 
part, but they'll nudge you to something that's very similar.

And while they're by no means cheap, a lot of their 
multiplier/divider/buffer/PLL/etc. modules are not out of the reach of a 
serious experimenter.  They actually have things in their parts list 
that are priced in three figures.

They're just good people.
