I am looking for a MOD-SIX_SLW kit without tubes since quite a time.
So taking the chance to ask if someone here have a spare kit or assembled one willing to part with?

If you are a seasoned electronics builder and already have the b7971 tubes, I'm willing to provide 2  PCBs (4 tubes per PCB) for cost of shipping. It's my own design ( not a MOD-6), and it's been running with no problems or  blue wires for over 2 months now. It's raspberry-pi controlled, with control software written in C.

I am highly interested.

Thanks for your kind offer but I guess I am just not that experienced.

Particularly I am looking for a Mod-Six with its letter word module (called RPTR-NEX).

Indeed I am not into B7971 but a bunch of ZM1350 are waiting since years for something like that.

Hi 

I'd be interested in the PCBs. Do you use sockets or individual pin holders?

Cheers

Ian

I'm running low on boards now (another neonixe member has requested 2). If you already have 7971 tubes in your possession, and you have a lot of experience assembling & debugging surface-mount boards I might be persuaded to release 2 more boards for cost-of-shipping from US to the UK. We can discuss more offline; check your inbox for my email address.

I use individual pin-holders (socket-pins), not sockets. After I place a 3D-printed collar around the socket pins, it looks like a socket. Each tube is assigned to a PCB location, and custom-fitted, which minimizes stress on the pins. I've ranted about this before on other threads; apologies for sounding redundant :-O  .
