Hi Paul, This instrument is an odd counter and programmable timer. If you look close you’ll need the dials yo pick your time interval. I am not a programmer at all. I did in college but that was long ago. If I were to modify it wouldn’t I have to cut circuitry? There’s a pic of the TTL in

I'm looking for tubes B5971 & B8971 (buy or borrow). I need these tubes to make sockets. Maybe someone here has them? One tube will be enough. I'll be grateful for any help. My last socket for B7971: [image: B7971.jpg] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

Looks great! I got you email today about the project. I'll be getting the 22 socket plan and also want the two under development. I need both of those sockets. I have both sets of tubes but exactly enough for my clocks. Did you know a single and set of six b-5971 are on eBay right now? I

Hey Paul, do you have a PCB for what you made for your counter? I'll buy and we can save the counter from "Nixie Harvesting" ;) On Mon, Apr 22, 2019 at 3:35 PM Paul Andrews wrote: > I just attached the probe from the counter to the pin I was toggling. I’m > not sure how your unit would work.

I'm afraid google doesn't provide such a solution. The data would have to be stored in a database. MySQL has bad performance, but for this tube database which contains little data, it should be just fine. Interfacing with a web-page is very easy and is done millions of times on the web. A

The software just runs on an Arduino (or maybe Wemos) and you attach a probe to the pin on the Arduino. There is no PCB involved, but as I said, the results aren’t great. > On Apr 22, 2019, at 9:17 PM, martin martin wrote: > > Hey Paul, do you have a PCB for what you made for your counter?

I spent a little time developing a frequency generator yo display the time on frequency counters. Here’s a link to my write up: https://www.nixies.us/2018/03/25/display-the-time-on-an-old-frequency-counter/ Ultimately, not something I’d recommend, but fun anyway. -- You received this message

Mixed boxes are always the best. I have quite a few tubes that I have not seen anywhere else through buying mixed lots. It helps that I don't care much about used v. NOS. NOS/NIB is always special, but if you want rare tubes, you have to accept that most are used. -- You received this message
