[neonixie-l] Re: Dalibor tubes
I'd read here about Dalibor and his tube making business but never realized what a magnificent tube he makes. Last week I watched his YouTube video about making tubes. And then I saw the YouTube unboxing of the 6 tube clock he makes. I ordered his 4 tube clock and his 6 tube clock. The 4 tube clock will be here this coming Tuesday. I can't wait to get both of them here and running! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.

[neonixie-l] Manuel Azevedo's Passing
I was sorry to hear this. Prayers for his family in coping with his untimely passing. I have his NWTS kits running on two clocks. They've performed flawlessly. He was extremely helpful in debugging one that didn't work due to user error. He will be missed.

[neonixie-l] Jeff Thomas GPSII Clock
I've owned the gpsii clock for a number of years and built it from the kit. Lately, I've noticed that the GPS lock light never comes on. I thought that the GPS board and/or the antenna had failed after so many years. I got pretty worried as this is my most favorite Nixie clock. Some years ago, Jeff sent me a new antenna. I installed it to no avail. I was using a PVC pole mounted on the side of the house right outside the basement where the clock is located. I took the antenna down and laid it on the patio contemplating what to do next. After a while I glanced at the clock and it was receiving GPS signals and displaying correctly once again. It appears that the wired PTZ camera I had mounted on top of the pole must be interfering with the antenna. It's time for a new mounting arrangement. I have a couple of later small GPS modules that work well in my basement workshop and they don't require an external antenna. Has anyone retrofitted a newer receiver to this clock? I'm afraid the ability to do this is not in my wheel house. Is there anyone currently making completed or kit Nixie clocks with built-in GPS?

[neonixie-l] Re: Anybody heard from David Forbes lately?
Clearly I was worried about my watch. Another member suggested I post a message here to see if I could get some sort of response since email didn't produce any results. I have no knowledge of his business nor what his workload is. My only knowledge is ordering from his website and seeing his posts here. My apologies to Mr. Forbes, however some communication would have avoided this situation.

No need to publicly disparage David and Cathode Corner. You claimed to be worried about David and his business, but clearly you were only worried about your watch. If you couldn't get ahold of David by email, you certainly could have looked up his number and called him. It took me all of 15 seconds to find his number online: (520) 795-7xxx No doubt David is working hard to support his customers, new and old. He's a one man band. Give him a break. We had another supplier on this list a few years ago who truly was a deadbeat, people are still bemoaning the loss of their deposits on a certain clock.
