My obscure interest: Vacuum Fluorescent Displays

[packrat79]

Somewhere in my parts pile, I have a rather large VFD from an old satellite receiver (I think), it's about 8" long and has roughly 10 or 12 grids of pixels (10 x 15 each or something like that) that can be used to spell out letters, numbers etc. Sort of like a small marquee sign, but it's VFD instead of LED / LCD. I bet you'd have fun with it! Make me a good offer and it's yours......
