Gidday campers,

	We have a need for about 150 photodiodes or transistors with the 
following specifications;

	-wavelengths: visible (orange/red)
	-range: 1"
	-mounting: no larger than T 1 3/4
	

	They are needed to sense the difference between an object that is 
painted bright day-glo orange and a dark background.  If you can think of 
something that might be as light, as small and lots cheaper that would do 
the job, we would appreciate your help.
