Finally, a Z573C Dekatron driving a GR10K Nixie!

[Dekatron42]

Hi All,

Here is the first Z573C Dekatron that I have hooked up to a GR10K Nixie so it spins. The Z573C is identical in pinout and function to the GCA10G Dekatron but it turned out to be much harder to get to spin properly, it needs adjustment of the guide bias and auxilliary anode bias voltage as well as adjustment of the guide drive pulses.

Here is a video of it running: http://youtu.be/O4l4E6NFa98
