[Heathkit] SB-650 DISPLAY QUESTION.

[Murray Grandy]

I RECENTLY PURCHASED SUBJECT DISPLAY UNIT. THE OWNER SAID IT HAD A PROBLEM, THE NIXIE TUBE ON THE FAR LEFT (MSD) FLASHES ON MOMENTARILY WHEN POWER IS FIRST TURNED ON, AND THEN IT TURNS OFF. ALL OTHER DIGITS STAY ON DISPLAYING "0". THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS. AFTER READING THE MANUAL, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN. I HAVE NOT YET CONNECTED IT TO THE TRANSCEIVER AS IT REQUIRES WIRING RCA JACKS AND I HAVE NOT GOTTEN AROUND TO DO IT. CAN ANYONE ON THE LIST CONFIRM HOW THIS UNIT SHOULD BEHAVE WHEN IT IS TURNED ON AND NOT CONNECTED TO A RADIO.
