Am sure Digikey http://dkc1.digikey.com/us/pdf/Current.html or Allied 
http://www.alliedelec.com/ would have something.

Personally I have never cared for Radio Shack having grown up with the big 
catalogs and neighborhood stores from Lafayette and Allied that carried 
Real Electronics and didn't get a blank look if you asked for a 1N4006 
(easier to handle than a 1N4004) but the market voted.

Am fortunate to have a big surplus store here also 
http://www.skycraftsurplus.com/index.asp . I would go there for a voltage 
regulator anyway.
