Adventures with IN-28s. I have determined that in this clock the IN-28s are operated in the following way: The anode is connected to half wave rectified 240V AC, the cathode is grounded through a 4.7K resistor. The grid is connected to the control board through a 1M resistor with a 3.9M

I haven't gone over the power supply yet. It looks like the main transformer is missing. If I can figure out what voltages it needs I can find/make a replacement. The wires from the socket to the transformer look incredibly thin. With all digits lit it must draw around 150-200 watts if each
