I am with you Val. Would love to see something either online, or in written form at least. As you said, there are various sites out there, like OBC, but they are not as complete as the SCD Catalogs were, and are not kept up to date in all cases. About the closest thing I think you could get to something online would be a copy of the SCD catalog in digital form. I seem to remember that one year they sold a CD version of the catalog in PDF format I believe, along with the printed version. That has to be more than 10 years ago though. It wouldn't have been updated since then, but at least you could maybe have access to the catalog by saving/uploading a copy of the file, and then retrieve it in some fashion on your smart phone or some other piece of equipment.
