Re: [neonixie-l] NL844 NL847 NL845 NL846 "high contrast tubes" vs. NL840, etc.

Hi, I have never heard of these high contrast tubes, either, I would be very interested in a comparing picture... Maybe it refers to the finer grind of the NL-845, but other types like the NL-840 have a fine grid, too: *http://jb-electronics.de/html/elektronik/nixies/n_nl840.htm *Strange. Ho

Hi: I have a bunch of NL840 that I will use someday. The "National Electronics Readout Tubes" datasheet (don't recall where I got mine, but I'm sure you can find one too) lists on pg. 7 that these tube types are high contrast. I wonder how they look in comparison to the non-high contrast tubes?
