part alternative?

does anyone know a direct replacement alternative for a tda7240a chip?

If I had to sub one, I'd buy another one from Electronics goldmine, where they are on sale at 99 cents.

If you are in the UK, there are some in London at 3 UKP. Can you say "arbitrage"?

wow thanks man, thats a great price for those.  im gonna go ahead and order a few for myself too.  i was having some trouble tracking them down...nobody seemed to carry them so i figured i would see if i could sub a part.  this is for a pignose hog 20 btw, if anyone is interested i may trace the circuit before i give it back to the guy, as im gonna throw one together for myself too i think.

I say trace it and make a layout! now that would be cool..
