That's neat Terry!  I have a Systron Donner counter with nixie tubes in
it.  They made nice gear.

Heh, well, it wasn't from eBay. I got it from a friend who was moving and had 
to give up all of his Nixie test gear. The "clock" is a timecode 
generator/reader.

I am so jealous. But at least I have my rack-mounted Nixie clock that I paid $0 
for. That'll never happen again.

Quick video it seems to work pretty well.  I'll open it up tomorrow and see how 
it's built and fill everyone in.  I can't find any documentation on the 
internet for it anywhere.

On top of this neat score I scored even bigger yesterday after work.  The 
timenut in me got a symmetricom syncserver S250 with the disciplined rubidium 
oscilator in it!  Crazy lucky auction win.  I need to find a good 12V GPS 
antenna with BNC connector for it.  The symmetricom ones are pricy even used... 
I hope I can find a good solution.  There are some window mount antennas too 
but I'm thinking this bad boy deserves the real one on the roof in the back of 
the house?  If anyone has experience with these let me know.  When I get the 
unit I'll put up a new post about it.  Nothing like syncing all my clocks to 
thati think!

It's a nice catch - wish I'd seen it at that price :)

Looking at the tube construction and the likely age of the unit (mid 60s 
through early 70s from the styling and size), my guesses would be Mullard 
Z504S followed by ETL/Hivac GC10B (or derivative thereof) Given it's a US 
piece of equipment, the branding on the tubes might be Amperex and 
Baird-Atomic respectively. I suspect it has the same model of tube in each 
of the 4 decades - doesn't look like a fast tube in the least-significant 
digit position as is sometimes used. If those are the tubes involved, very 
strong chance they'll be working just fine, though obviously there could be 
problems elsewhere in the unit - dried out electrolytics etc.

Cheers,

Jon.

Thanks for the reply John!  I wish I could find some documentation for it
somewhere!  I've been looking but it predates the internet and it's
nuclear.  During that time people didn't really publicise much about stuff
like this.  Which dekatrons does it run on?  Can you tell?  Some counters
use different dekatron models for the decades.

Thanks again for the post,

Bill
