Need recommendation for PCB house and machine shop - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

We do quite a few component qualification for defense and space industry and as a result we design a lot of test fixtures and test and calibration PCB ourself. The PCB size is relative small 1x1 inches mostly with Roger 4350B material and one job could req'd 5 different PCBs of that size. The test fixture is also small and modular to house our PCBs and drawn with Solidworks 2006. We used to have it made locally (both PCB and test fixture housing) but the price is not very competitive. I need some recommendations regarding PCB house and machine shop who could build our test fixture w/ competitive pricing and I don't mind if they build it in China as long as shipping date is certain. No kidding.

Thanks

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
