Update on the NL5440A contest, Some E-bay sockets & a shameless plug

[lai...@wcoil.com]

I just got this note from Jorge

Tim:



The tubes arrived safely, Thanks for the excellent packaging. During the
Xmas vacation I am doing the layout of a board for the tubes and the RGB
LEDs that will generate all the colors my daughter likes. Work in
progress, I guess. I bought some of the sockets off ebay. Those will
arrive before the year is over. Merry Xmas to you and your family.



Jorge

We look forward to seeing pictures of the finished project!

For anybody needing some NL544x series sockets or NL84X series sockets
there are some on E-bay right now at reasonable BIN prices. E-bay
auction 261352976839 for the NL544x series tube sockets. E-bay auction
251402334378 for the NL84x series tube sockets. Disclaimer not my auction
not affiliated with the seller etc.

Now my shameless plug. I have 2 sets of 6 NL5440As up on E-bay ending
tonight E-bay auctions 281231422331 and 281231423402. Priced pretty
reasonably right now. Ends tonight in about 13 hours. Standard
