Right on spot gregebert: I did some hotswapping or I had not fully inserted the Nixie in the socket. I am always afraid it breaks. Also thank you for the brainstorming about drivers and how to protect them. Paolo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
