I'm amazed that Tek 465 actually works. Score!

Not too worry. After a few power cycles at least one tant will flip the bird with copious amounts of magic smoke. :-DD

That absolute turd arrived at 08:30 and emptied it again >:(
Did manage to grab a manky tek 465, a solartron 7150, some 10 turn pots, TO18 heat sinks and a book to sell. And I still have change from £25 :-DD

Is the turd a dealer?

Yes. Same one I mentioned to you last time. He waltzed off with a pile of kit and left the trash for everyone else. Turns up as a seller but doesn't set up, goes round and empties everything off and that's it.

There are no rules around this? In any case, if he's a known quantity and you can learn what vehicle he uses, it should be possible to run interference and stop him from getting there early, if you can organise a few people for joint action.

Do they just leave straight after, or do they eventually set up their stall? I guess the organisers shouldn't let them in early if they arrive with nothing to sell. :--

Solartron. Also works apart from two missing decimal points. I swapped a couple of the rather ancient LED displays around expecting that to be the issue but it wasn’t. Hopefully the main IC isn’t at fault :(
Should read 9.6245.
Got to go do some shopping now :(

Could it be a bad connection? I had this with my Solartron 7075, it was working fine before I got it, when it arrived it would only display even numbers (original cal seals were intact), I reseated some connectors & have had no problems since.

He actually leaves around 10AM. Never sets up a stall. I will get his plate next time and start shit posting about it to event organisers.
