The bid history shows 2 people really wanted it. It's an unusual DMM because it's 4-1/2 digits rather than the much more common 3-1/2. I understand the "tulip-fever" frenzy over functional nixie-tube equipment; I bought an HP 5245L counter from a local surplus shop a few years ago for $175. I had no interest in the tubes, and didn't have much need for a frequency counter, but because it's working and has a lot of digits, the wow-factor overwhelmed my sense of reason.On Jun 12, 2024, at 6:34 PM, gregebert <greg...@hotmail.com> wrote:

Re: [neonixie-l] A bit $teep for a DMM
What makes this DMM so valuable? There are only four tubes to yank out:
It is a FLUKE, you would only Yank the tubes to clan the pins and remove the dust from the sockets... then reassemble carefully and bow down in Veneration.

Here is my partially successful attempt to display the time on a frequency counter by generating the correct frequency that would result in the time being shown in the frequency counter. I had forgotten about this until I read this thread
Wow, I could display several time zones at once. 8D
