Mystery of the small K is solved: The tubes is developed to use in Cyrillic. In Cyrillic the lower case k has the same shape as the upper case K but is smaller [ http://www.hts-homepage.de/Suchen.html }.
But what does it matter if you use it as a K in your thermometer ? Further: The IN-19B has an F, but unfortunately not in combination with ° It is also missing the %. Up to you to use both the tubes if you insist to show your temperature in F.... eric -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bill van Dijk Sent: donderdag 5 juli 2012 3:57 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [neonixie-l] Nixie thermometer in Elektor journal Upper case.
