Thank you . I believe that might be the Remote System from PV Electronics - I have used that elsewhere but for this I wanted to make a compact unit with all the WiFi, Web Gui, underlighting and other features from the Open Source 'Prism' design by Ian Sparkes.
I am pleased with the result, yesterday I made a simple acrylic case for it - because it is going to take me an age to get anything more interesting together - I'll post a picture of it when completed - an injustice the the tubes I know - but better than a bare board sat on my shelf ticking away! I have a couple of PV Remote Systems lined up to populate old Australian Valve Tested units that I acquired - yet another project waiting in the wings! What issues did you have with the main board for the Remote System? I had a couple of the early ones and had to replace the LM2596-5 on both boards. Apart from that - rock solid. - Richard On Saturday, 19 March 2022 at 12:18:29 UTC Bill Notfaded wrote: > Nice clock Richard. I too have collected these tubes. I've been sitting > on my stock.
