You can get one for cheap if you go down to the thrift store and buy an old
TRS-80. That will cost less than a new WD1771, I'd bet.

Subject: 1771 floppy controller questions
I have a complete TRS-80 Model I that has a dead
Western Digital FD1771-01
chip in its expansion interface. Does anyone know if a National 1771-B01
is a suitable replacement? What would be a fair/reasonable price for a new
1771 these days?
