Yuriy - Someday you need to write a book about your adventures as a 
tube-hunter.

Finding 3600 tubes is amazing; congratulations !

[neonixie-l] Re: 14-digit nixie calculator project with clock function

2020-01-15 Thread newxito
 

The 14 neons for the dots and minus sign are now installed and everything 
seems to work fine. The board with the switches is also fully assembled, it 
uses a HT16K33. I will start with this keyboard layout. I have to start now 
designing the case, that’s the hardest part of this project. If the case 
looks ok, I probably will design a new board with more keys and functions 
and buy some custom keycaps. By the way, custom keycaps seem to be really 
expensive!

I've removed some ZM1263s from boards, which looked like they used in some 
measurement device. Unfortunately, I didn't receive any info about what 
kind of devices were they - only the nixie PCBs with ZM1263s and 
ZM1175/ZM1177s. So they definitely were used in commercial devices, but 
their purpose still remain a mystery.

When it comes to uncommon symbols - there is a line of Polish Dolam nixies 
with almost whole alphabet. Strangely, some letters can be found in more 
than one tube, and some aren't present in any. Symbols are LL-551 up to 
LL-558. No other company produced as many nixies that could be used to 
display static text.
