Finding Wires and Fuses

[Tintin]

Anyone else having trouble finding Fuses and Wires for the relay stations? I have been through FM, PL and now MT, and have yet to find enough in each given zone for it's station. The only place I've found enough is out at DP.
I've been checking what should be the obvious spots (Farm, Barn, Village and Plane Crash in PV, all the radio towers and Homestead in FM, the Town, Plane Crash, Gas station and Farm in MT), should I be checking caves and far-flung cabins? Is my save messed up and I'll not be able to find enough for all the stations? I'm 200+ days in on Stalker on this save.

So far in just Mystery Lake I have found 4 of each, and I wasn't even looking for them. Granted I'm playing on Voyager difficulty so that could be making them a little easier to find. I would suggest looking everywhere cause i found a couple in the fishing shacks.

I was at the airfield when this dropped. There was plenty of wires and fuses there, BR, and ML. Found a little at MT when I went there. Just got to PV and didn't bring any because I was finding so many before, but haven't found a single wire or fuse at all the same locations you listed. Guess I'll walk back to ML, though I may check CH, it would make sense that the garage would have some. Plus I haven't been there on this game yet.

Edit:
Yes there were some in the garage in CH, none at any of the other common loot places that I checked along the way.

I haven't played in a week, but I found them mainly in places you can find Tools, Scrap Metal, etc.

I think the point of Signal Void is to make you explore though, and so there could just a given number of wires and fuses spread around the map. While I would assume that it's always going be enough to complete the quests I am not sure. I have only played one seed so far.

PV has all you need in the radio hut assuming you have a hacksaw to harvest metal, maybe you missed something. FM has like half of what you need, you can find some more in Spences and Maintenance Shed in BR. MT is rough, but if you do other bunkers first, you should find enough fuses and wires in the bunkers themselves. Metal and car batteries are no problem in MT.

Desolation Point should have some, if you're willing to leg it all the way there. If you're going to the garage, might as well check Hibernia and the Riken too.

If you want to trek there I found quite of lot of fuses and wires in the Maintenance Yard in Broken Railroad, makes sense that one.
