[Heath] Nixies

[Randy Kaeding]

Those aren't actually Nixie tubes. I believe they are called gas-discharge tubes.

There are a very few radios around that have had their displays changed to LED displays. As far as I know, those were all radios owned by company employees. By modifying the display to LEDs, you could get rid of the high-voltage converter box that caused a lot of problems in the receiver. And, they looked a lot better. I have them in mine.

 A good reliable source of tubes is www.dbtubes.com
  
 He has a number of different Nixie tubes listed on his
 website.
  
 I have done business with this source, quick and
 reliable.
