Steve.

Yes, +/- 5% is higher, how much depends on your fab house. I would have to shop 
around if we needed lower cost.  At the time 3 years ago I was building test 
equipment and yes the board was expensive. The application we were working on 
demanded tight impedance control. 


BTW. 

This guy.. 
Vince BeusanMEI Inc(949)460-9500www.mei4pcbs.comTells me in a recent email that 
his fab shop can do +/-5% all day long no problem but I have not worked with 
them in the past. Maybe these guys have an updated fab process set up where 
they can do tighter tolerance at lower cost.  Only way to find out is to try 
it.
