I found out why the 10k didn't work. This is being driven by pin 3 on the PIC (RA4) which is an open-drain output. I have a 10k pull-up on it. Reducing the base resistor to 10k loaded this down too much. When I reduce the pull-up to 2k, the 10k base resistor works. On Tuesday, September 11,

When I said this worked well, I had only tried this on one lamp, and it blanked that one nicely. Now I tried adding the resistors on all the lamps. This works fine for the lamps, but it's causing problems in the nixies; parts of the anodes and/or cathodes are glowing where they shouldn't be.
