Nifty. I have two of the general radio Strobotachs that used the neon tubes. I'm reversing direction on one. I'm putting solid state internals in it with a microprocessor to read the big pot and set the speed. That will get rid of the drift that plagues this model.
Best part is, I can fit the microprocessor without stripping out any of the tube guts other than removing the tubes so the unit can be restored to original if desired. I also have a modern StroboTach. Now that thing is slick. I picked up 6 spare conducted arc strobe tubes for practically nothing at a hamfest. NIB. I 'bout freaked when I saw the company now making the StroboTachs charging $500 for a replacement flash tube.
