Just a quick addition - the dead Xicon electrolytic had no visible signs of
failure - no bulging or leakage at all. The DMMs, however good they are,
were mostly useless in this case as they were simply confused by what was
happening - no DMM or analog VM would have helped much - an analog VM
So,
I have had an original NixiSat from new, so a long time now - I detailed
it's restoration to a more modern time source and working condition in
these two threads:

...and...
Many years ago I bought some NOS B7971s - they came in expanded polystyrene
trays moulded to half a tube lying down, 16 at a time, at about USD 10
each. Whilst they could have been pulls, there was very little ghosting so
I suspect they were genuinely NOS or at least very close to being NOS.
Nobody?

So here's the thing: I'm rationalising my rather large nixie collection
over the next few months I don't need lots of every nixie.
I'm starting with a stash of ETL GR10Gs in varying condition - one has a

I also believe that they were used for text on RADAR displays.
There were a lot of variants of the CK1414 - the suffix specifies the mask
in the tube - it's the mask that determines what characters the tube can
generate.
I have two types here - CK1414-07 (Brimar) & CK1414F10C (Raytheon) - they

Hi Jonathan
We're looking at this but first impressions are that your membership looks

Are you sure that it's not a caching issue and something that a hard
Ukraine produces 50-70% (depending on whom you ask) of the world's neon and
its use is key in semiconductor manufacturing. Never knew that...
I also use TinyGPS++, though a version I've modified for the MSP430 and
other processors - I've also made it "const correct" and added conditional
compilation so that a reduced size version can be built if you don't need
the maths stuff (that drags in a whole bunch of libraries that may waste a

Whoever made the letters was really good... I wonder if the fabricator
(rather than the artist) was Neon Workshops/Richard Wheater? There's a lot
in the styling of those letters that looks like his work.

Just to note that there are an enormous number of nixies there, plus clocks

The auctioneers and family are aware of the value of these items and are

That's weird - we passed that number in 2020 - was the tube made last year
and if so, who made it?

Nope - it reduces the purple haze (!) around the cathodes due to the Hg
doping, thus improving definition and legibility.

Indeed - NWYTS: 2.5, NixiSat: 110210
Couple of things - who is maintaining/selling NWTS now and who has the
source code etc. for the NixiSat?
Both are estate items, regrettably, and both are important!

Thanks to all who replied but I decided to stop being pathetic and to do it
myself!
Basically, after the upgrades to the Haicom 204III GPS puck, the NixiSat is
talking to the puck using RS232, 4800 baud, 8 bits, no parity and is
expecting to just receive a $GPRMC sentence once a second.
So,
Has anyone done this?
I have an original Jeff Thomas NixiSat with the later firmware and the

The current site of the clock has no GPS visibility, so I want to replace
