I thought it was clever too, and it works pretty well - it's easy to turn the dial until the strobe freezes the reed motion. That reflector you found was just the thing, it looks great. > I was originally going to engrave the panel with high/low frequencies but > opted for a simple 0 - 10 as I was unsure how things would age; I did realise > the need for calibration adjustment pots in that case. Indeed. The frequency window with the side-view dial would be hard to build, but it's easy to read and a nice touch in the commercial product. > I'm also playing with the caps in the multivibrator to extend the range and > reduce the range overlap a bit.

And the biggest valve of all will be the caesium fountain, right? - Cheers, John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
