[time-nuts] HP nixie counters, free!

[Don]

Hi Scott....
I have two of these counters and just love them.  
With the proper 'tuned-cavity' plugins, they can measure into the
gigahertz.  Such nostalgia.
Unfortunately, I am in Austin, TX.  They are heavy!  Want to meet in
Atlanta????  hihi.
Seriously, ...if you have any left over, with no homes, I might be
interested in just the Nixie readout modules, if you would ship some to
me.  I'll pay shipping, of course.
