Oh good, this has been listed on the local ebay classifieds as parts or repair for local pickup

I was strong yesterday but contacted the seller just now, let's just hope someone else was faster, I don't need more stuff in the repair pile...
But the diff-amp looks cute and saskia might be interested in the scope once she has settled again

Also the Ph-meter looks like it is nixie-based

Update on the frequency mixer thingy: quick test shows it somewhat works, obvious flaw is the input stages get as hot as a 2$ pistol when no input signal is present

In fact, power draw halves from 0.3A to 0.15A when giving it input

Running that part of the logic from 5.5V seems obviously a bad choice now but thats what adjustable regulators are for

Edit: Added a picture of the VFD-Nixie module supposedly inside the Ph-meter. Is it ok to make it a clock if it isn't a "real" nixie?
