I'm pretty familiar with BASIC, and I know it has it's limitations. I
know C is VERY popular, and very useful as well. For the programmers
in here, as far as microcontrollers go, what language do you prefer,
and can you suggest a good way to start learning said language?

Yeah, built the vellleman kit (ZM1336, appears to be similar to the
ZM1332. Nice tube, but small (13mm))
I found a source of NOS NL807 tubes for $20 each, compared to $250 for
NOS IN-18 tubes. Might resort to those.
(I can get the IN-18s, but no spares, for $240, I get 12 NL807s)

By going to ebay, you are already at the cheapest place. Can't buy
cheaper than the cheapest.
You may get lucky in a second hand store, but you would have to be very

If you set your sights a little lower, you'll find that there are still
some affordable nixies out there. Do a search for IN-12.
In my experience, although there are online stores that sell nixies,
most of them are more expensive than ebay. Although with ebay comes a
certain amount of risk, I su

Of course there are many in this group, including myself, who would
love to have one of those tubes. In all fairness, you should probably
place them on eBay, and then issue a 'shameless plug' (FS:) here. If

There are various ways to use a flip-flop to do this, depending on what kind of
