I bought a few spare A-101's and at least one had a 1992 manufacturing date.
So I'm wondering what could the former Soviet Union have needed with such old technology in the 1990's ? I would have expected that they would have replaced all their dekatron equipment by then, so even spare tubes should not have been needed. Or, am I entirely wrong and they continued to use 1950's era technology for another 30-40 years ? Or perhaps was there rampant waste & excess that old factories kept churning-out obsolete devices, only to store them in warehouses, just to keep workers employed ? Too bad the soviets didn't make tons of CD47's........ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
