Howard's Oscilloscope and Nixie Clocks

On the past few days I've been collaborating with Howard Constantine of Oscilloscope Clocks and Nixie Clocks ​at http://oscilloscopeclocknixiecrt.com/. Howard produces, as the name says, Oscilloscope and Nixie clocks and the GPS enabled models  are now certified as nwts compatible. 

Howard has tested nwts with his Kickstarter Nixie Clock VII and it works with very minimal modifications.

nwts can be fitted under the clock. Howard's instructions couldn't be clearer:
  • The only modification needed to use nwts with Nixie6.7 (or OSC4.4) is to use a three pin header in place of the jack BU1. Use a small jumper wire to connect GND to the center pin. DATA connects to TX on Nixie6.7. On startup, just selectthe GPS autoset time/date feature as described.

Thank you Howard!

How does the newts get power? What are the reqd connection to Howard's Nixie 6.7?

Where is the 3 pin header soldered in place of the jack? Which holes on the board are used?

Hello Firdaus,
NWTS power is supplied from the 5VDC connection shown, and it is only a 3 wire connection using a three pin header strip soldered to the NWTS board as shown.
Please see the text on the drawing indicating the holes used for the Data (TX) Ground & 5VDC connections. That's all that is needed!
best regards, Howard
