Large Nixie Tubes
An exceptionally generous gift arrived today from an old friend now in Minnesota...four large Nixie tubes plus a full set of documentation and plans. My first guess is they are Burroughs B-7971's; click on title to this post for link to more information.
Remote Telemetry Instrumentation Unit
Arduino controlled remote telemetry box including battery power supply and wireless communication module with 6 mile range. Currenlty testing with temperature logging; plans include gps, accellerometer, magnetic flux, serial jpeg camera module, and other sensors.
Shown in first test location mounted under one of our radars in the back yard.
