Cool! Very unusual clock! Do you use MTX90? Do you think this version is more stable/reliable than your previous one on NE-2 bulbs?

It's this difference which allows one to build counters with them. I'll publish a more detailed description on my website later on. Some may know that I built a similar clock over ten years ago: http://pa3fwm.nl/projects/neonclock/ That clock used regular NE-2 style neon lamps for the logic; unfortunately it became unreliable, as the lamps' properties changed with time. I hope the new clock will turn out to be more reliable... Regards, Pieter-Tjerk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
