Are you sure these are actual products or are they just guesses because the numbers are missing in between other known Nixies?

It would be good to know before I go hunting for information.

Hello,

Yes, I confirm, these numbers look like missing between other (known) tubes, but for all of these I have found at least one source telling that they exist.

Sources are mixed, collected over years...

So it's not just a guess from me that they might exist.

Best regards

Dieter

Ok, so what data/information do you have so far on them, care to share that?

It might help to know what's available so I can try to ask contacts if they know anything in regards to what's available.

Thank you Martin,

This is the special list of the "Z" section where I only have the type numbers and no other data.

I have not explored all data books and data sheets in my archive. So it might be, that I have some data but die not find them, yet.

Of course some are very easy to "guess" - like ZM1010R is the red filter version of the ZM1010, or Z5720M is the clear version of the Z572M.

Oh, this is a good example that the Z5720M exists, since I got the Z572M already.

So to answer your question: The type numbers are all I have up to now.

Best regards

Dieter

Thank you Dieter for explaining! I have a few contacts that I can ask about some details if I know more, but since most of the contacts are well over 80 years old and some well over 90 years old they have asked me to only ask about specific information rather than a bunch of information. So if you find some small piece of information about an old Nixie I can try to se if anyone has more information.

Thank you Tomasz for the information.
Yes, I see this entry in the RFT catalogue.
I also never saw a picture of that type.
Best regards
Dieter

Thank you Martin,
Yes, I understand that. In future I will surely do research in special
type numbers... will show the results with questions here...
Best regards
