Russian VFD Manual

[GastonP]

Hi guys...
Got online a very complete manual for their VFD tubes, in DejaVu
format, in Russian only. By now most of us have managed to get the
meat out of their manuals so I don't think this will be much of an
obstacle . Besides the usual suspects IV-1, IV-4, IV17, IV-22, IV-18,
etc. it has ILV1-5x7M and other niceties. The datasheets also are full
and not the short form ones, including for some types the luminosity
vs. anode voltage curves, and for the multi colored ones, the spectral
visual density curves.
Between other oddities I found there was a top-view "british-flag"
tube, predictively, the IV-5...

OK... now that I threw the bait... who will be so nice to make it
available to the community in a public server? A private one would do
too... I want this to be shared and spread other than by cluttering my
outbox.

Regards
Gastón

If you send it to me, I'll host it on my private server.

Is it a doc or photo? Perhaps it could be hosted on a skydrive, like
Mike likes to do with his stuff.

Hi Adam... I will send it to you too...
It's a DejaVu doc that unfortunately is not search-enabled. That's why
I had to move earth and sea to find it. I needed the ILV1-5x7M
datasheet and the only thing I got were eBay pages and one or two
references. Searching in Cyrilic got me a couple inches farther but
not much...

I forgot to mention that it is actually an "All Display except Nixie"
manual... it has the datasheets of those strange
thyratron-like matrix displays, LEDs, LED matrixes, the (in)famous
INS-1 and a couple intriguing devices...

I don't have problems in uploading it to a SkyDrive... but as my net
presence is (intentionally) non-existant except by posts to very
specific forums, I wouldn't get it spread...
Places like the ones of people that have a real presence and where the
ones in need go in search of information is where it should be.

I can host this on my nixiebunny.com site, if you just need it to be available
and have search engine presence. I'll write a descriptive text to get it in to
Google.

Or better yet, get Dieter to host it as well.

Probably that`s Vukolov-Mikhailov ref. book. The year of print is 1987 (on the bottom of the first page), right?

It`s strange, that it was undiscovered till now. One of the best books about Soviet VFD`s, EL`s and flat gas-discharge tubes. No nixies, right.

If not, let me know and I upload that one.

HI Tidak,
I was made aware of his site (that I know long before because of my
tube audio bug) but his site does not has displays in its focus. No
nixies, less than all VFD... nada.

Yes, Dmitry, it is...
And it is not strange... the book is a direct scan without any hints
to the contents... no way for a web spider to index it. Also there
were no pointers or hints to anything like this, even in Russian
speaking forums...
Thanks for the offer anyway. Perhaps your scan is in a more friendly
format than DejaVu, which has all lousy readers...

As soon as I get him interested, I will ;)

Yes, that's the one.

It's available on my server now here:

In the interim, I converted the DejaVu document you sent me to PDF and also put it up on my server:
