Ah, that's the *other* ETL! Electronic Tubes Ltd of High Wycombe as opposed
to Ericsson Telephones Ltd of Beeston. It's the Ericsson ETL which makes
the nixies, dekatrons etc.
Thanks Martin!

Paul, would you mind sharing the basis for your comment about the post-1957
Mullard/ETL connection? I've done a lot of work on ETL history (visited
what's left of their archives, talked to employees etc) and this is news to
me.
Thanks,
Jon.

I can help, Nick - will PM you. Long-timers here will remember that almost
15 years ago now I did a lot of work on the ETL date code. Dekatrons were
my focus, but it's the same code used on all ETL tubes, including these
lovely nixies.
