Hello,
I want to make a dekatron clock.

I found some schematics on http://959radio.co.uk/dekatron.html

but here is my first question:
in schematic http://959radio.co.uk/1Sec_Generator.pdf there are two OG-3 to reduce the 100 Hz to 1 Hz.
Is it possible to use some OG-4 without the G3 input and corresponding cabling ? the speed is not critical and I would like to keep the classical orange glow instead of the argon.

Regards,
Benoit.

From a quick look at the application, yes. OG4 will be perfectly happy with a 100Hz input.
