That is my video, but I didn’t know it before I clicked the link. I have no idea why it says comments are disabled. I wonder if someone complained that it wasn’t for kids? You know Nixie Porn.
Michail From: neonixie-l@googlegroups.com <neonixie-l@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Richard Scales Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2021 8:42 PM To: neonixie-l <neonixie-l@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: [neonixie-l] Re: B7971 DUSTOFF Board Interest The only problem in doing that - as far as I can tell - is that the B5971 does not have the same number of segments, I believe that the centre vertical segment is one long piece from top to bottom as opposed to being made up of two parts. Whilst it may be possible to handle the switching of this with some electronics it would be easier to do it in software - re-mapping all the characters to deal with the difference. Over at the Smart-Sockets group you will find details of a project for the B5971. Here is a clip of some of them in action: https://youtu.be/dCdzolBSNM8 I have adapted the same B-5971 controller boards and software to drive SP-101 panaplex displays and other 7 segment devices. - Richard On Thursday, 29 April 2021 at 01:11:11 UTC+1 peter....@gmail.com<mailto:peter....@gmail.com> wrote: I'm absolutely still interested in the DUSTOFF board. I'm also interested in the ZM1350 board however I don't have any tubes and they seem very hard to obtain. I do have a set of B5971 tubes. Is it possible to adapt the ZM1350 board to B5971? I guess what I'm asking is if it's a one piece board or if the displays are on a separate pcb. If so would it be possible for me to design a display board for the B5971's that would plug into the driver board if it's a multiple board design. Thanks!

Been out of the country again, and will be leaving to Australia in early June for a couple months. Work has been crazy this year. That said... here are updates on all my existing and future projects. . EXISTING PROJECTS If your name is not listed below and you're interested, please let me know! Cost will be roughly the cost to manufacture and assemble + shipping, in the $300-$400 range for various boards. DUSTOFF B7971 BOARD + ESP32 ADAPTER [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity] Based on the feedback provided, I have already put in another PCB manufacturing and assembly order for five DUSTOFF displays (no tubes). I am tracking the following individuals are interested (no commitment): 1.) Peter Doroba 2.) Jon Jackson (#2! + I owe working ESP32 back-end implementation of database) 3.) Wo Tu (board not assembled, kit version) 4.) Wayne de Greer (x2?) 5.) Peter and Jon, your maintained interest has been (happily) noted, looking for continuing interest from Wo and Wayne. GEORGIA TECH GRADCAP B5971 [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity] Kind of a neat update on this one, I was recently issued a design patent! I have one remaining (no tubes). Last I was tracking, the following individuals were interested (no commitment): 1.) William "Bill" Eckler Will, please let me know if you're still interested. ZM1350 8-TUBE BOARD [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity] I have two remaining (no tubes). Last I was tracking, the following individuals were interested (no commitment): 1.) Jon Jackson 2.) Paul Wolff Jon and Paul, please let me know if you're still interested. UPCOMING PROJECTS STANFORD GRADCAP ZM1350 [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity] Especially excited about this one - uses a matrix array of ZM1350s to show off some neat moving graphics! Software is going to a pain and will largely have to be written from scratch, but should be a fun challenge. Design patent application filed on this. POST-MODERN 8091 CLOCK [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity] The circuit board is up and running properly, but still trying to design an interesting and post-modern black anodized aluminum case for said clock... should we be neat when complete! I also only have 5 8091s, and am desperately searching for a 6th. Trying to turn this into a collaboration project with an industrial designer!

I have my commercial and instrument ratings in rotary aircraft (and am working on my commercial multi engine FW). Possibly ATP one day - we’ll see! Yes, all of what you are requesting can be done seamlessly, though it requires a wifi network that you can connect to, to be available. Shouldn’t be a problem if you live at an airport! I have one other interested individual, but need one more in order to make putting another batch in worthwhile (the $300 cost is near production cost, so it’s a loss if I can’t sell at least of four of five). I will let you know if that happens by email Thanks! Mahdi On Sat, Dec 5, 2020 at 8:37 AM Peter Doroba <peter....@gmail.com<mailto:peter....@gmail.com>> wrote: Great! I'd likely take you up on the code help offer. I did start out as an EE major in college but switched to Aeronautical Science when I got the flying bug. :) I'm a Spirit Airlines Captain and live on an airport so the the METAR/TAF feature really speaks to me. LOL Maybe a silly question but the board can display the current date and time correct? Can it be configured to display both local and UTC in turn? Also, how often is the WX data displayed? Thanks! Pete On Friday, December 4, 2020 at 10:49:02 PM UTC-5 Mahdi Al Husseini wrote: Yes of course! Currently, it will immediately select the closest airport based on longitude and latitude data, but it is very easy to adjust the code to select a particular airport ID. I can help with that as needed. The current code for TAF/METAR is attached for reference. If purchased, I will adjust the code slightly, to support the ESP32 on the new boards.

This is my last run of B7971 boards for the foreseeable future. The cost would be $300 + shipping. Thank you.
