Terry - I don't know if your earlier MOD-SIX clocks had tube hour registers, but my curiosity is how many hours do you have on your B7971 tubes on your clocks?  Have you had any failures?   My experience with these tubes is that they obviously have excellent shelf life, good seals and seem to

You shouldn’t have received a faceplate that was scratched. I would have returned that one (as I have done before). As long as you use a clean lint free cloth and the correct cleaner it’s pretty easy to clean acrylic. Fire polishing can work, but best if you practice a bit first as has already

Are ya'll talking about re-releasing this clock? If so, could you do a glass version instead of plexi glass? I would be interested in buying another one if so. Thanks, -Darin On Wednesday, November 29, 2017 at 6:28:29 PM UTC-6, Dman777 wrote: > > I have a Clock Three Jr. that I have been

I suspected something like that as some items “looked to be good” to come from the AliX vendors. Accidently ran into someone out there selling a kit for the Arduino-run Menta synth (in an Altoids tin can). Thought just Adafruit sold these /Magnus From: 严泽远 Sent: Saturday, December

Thanks! I looked into the code and it generally looks similar to my pseudo-PI approach (preloading PWM to some value and then simply ++ or -- if output is too high or too low). I had troubles with slow response, but I think that it was because how analogRead is handled on STM32 hacked to work
