Some time ago I read that it would be good practice to let each
cathode lit at maximum rated current for about 2 minutes, I can't find
that page no more so I am not too sure about the reasoning behind it.
If metal sputters are a cause of the problem, it could more likely
show up in these first 2 mi

You just got unlucky. The metal that sputters off the cathodes, formed
crude metal film resistors; partial short.

Hi Ray,
What's happened with your FLW clocks in the past has nothing to do
with me as I am just a newbie. I did follow this post for a few
reasons, 1, I initially felt sorry for you and I thought someone needs
to help this guy out, 2 after hearing what had happened before, it is
interesting to see
Eh? I think you misread my post Dave - I was referring to the FLW concept,
not people's attitudes ! The point is that no-one needs Ray's designs any
more - the world has moved on - there are better options out there.
As no-one else had received stuff from Ray, I felt it was worth pointing

So here is what I will do. I will give away all intellectual property
for these several products and variations thereof. ...
Ray,
I'm glad that you came to this decisi
Good on you Ray! One step closer to redemption. Though I probably won't
benefit from your products, I'm sure some in this group will. Here's to a
better future!
