I will definitely post the results when I make the change. I am going to 
wait until the warranty return period is over before I make any changes. I 
put a short 30 second video of the clock in operation at 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FC2LtsPWbPc. The tubes are the ZM1022's.

This morning I decided to finally find out what the 16 Nixie tubes are in 
that 16-digit display I have had for at least 35 years. I never took it 
apart to look tube type. They are Rodan GR-111P's.  Nice silvery printing 
on the back. I have to examine the pinout on the spec sheet and see what 
would be involved in using them with one of the Chinese boards. If the pins 
are close to IN-14 layout they should be easy enough to install on one of 
those common boards without having to move wires all over the place.

I've used an INS1 as a colon in one of my clocks.  They tend to flicker 
sometimes.  I've been running one for a while and it was fine for several 
days.  It flickered occasionally for a few more days and has since 
stabilized.  They look nice so hopefully they just take some time to 
settle.  Let me know how they work for you when you get around to using 
them.
