I think the following company is still in business:
OMEGA Optical Inc.
3 Grove Street, Box 573
Brattleboro, Vermont, USA 05301
(802) 254-2690
The literature I have from them lists Short Pass (SP) as an option for
the Dichroic Mirror (DM) series. They just need to know the Cut-on/off
Wavelength (CWL) you require.
