I'll need to get home and pull the datasheet - IIRC the usual Sylvania
or RCA Dekatron had a transfer-rate of about 400 - 500 KC, ie. you could
drive them at 500KC and get a divided-by-ten pulse of 50 KC.
I have upwards of 40 of 'em, (none for sale/trade currently) and sockets
and biasing networks too.
Someday I'll make a Grand Project out of them - or a few, at any rate.
Cheers
