Along with other types. If Jan is here, he may be able to elaborate about it. I sampled a few from Jan in early '02, then designed a couple of clocks and kits around them. They went viral. The Z568's were shipped in by the hundreds at a time, individually box, wrapped in corrugated paper and tissue.
I have many sealed cardboard boxes of RFT Z570's to this day, in 200ct boxes, and dated 1969. Possibly acquired from the same source. 45yr old communist time capsules :) Regards, Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
