I'll bet this was the first dog in Germany to have ever tasted haggis!! My folks sent me one for Burns Night. I had some, but I couldn't persuade any of my English pals to have a go!! Our Rex had no problems - he gobbled it up (as dogs do) and finished it within seconds!! Another of his tricks . . . he loved to howl. I'm not too sure why he did that. If you joined with him he would keep howling away, louder and longer. After a while it got a bit lycanthropic. Just not too sure where it was going to end!!!
The ramé-hart Model 295 Automated Goniometer / Tensiometer is identical to Model 290 except that the stage is upgraded to the Advanced 3-axis Stage. The Advanced Stage permits fine and coarse vertical adjustment and has a modular leveling stage with support for the optional Environmental Chamber (p/n 100-07) and Temperature Controller (p/n 100-50). Included with this system is the Automated Tilting Base and Automated Dispensing System.
The fiber optic illuminator provides adjustable backlighting and each system ships with a PC and LCD to make it a complete turn-key ready-to-use instrument.
Add the optional Oscillator to measure surface dilatational elasticity or the Environmental Fixture to measure interfacial tension. Other options include the film clamps, 4" diameter wafer support, custom fixtures and specimen support options.
With DROPimage Advanced software, results can be logged and reports can be generated using myriad options. Images can be saved and high speed measurements can be taken real time up to 100 frames per second.
If you need a robust automated system that is powerful yet user-friendly, the Model 295 is well-suited for a wide array of contact angle, surface energy, surface tension, interfacial tension, wetting, roughness, absorption, spreading, cleanliness, and surface heterogeneity and characterization applications. Add the optional Environmental Chamber for working at elevated temperatures.
Every study requires capacity and flexibility. This system is popular in research environments where a demanding system with a powerful suite of hardware and software tools permits the discovery of many quantitative surface characterizations with a high degree of automation and repeatability.

Info:
Mid 1980's Tantek, Tanrak Studio Effects Rack which was available in kit form or ready built. Modules audio signals are linked internally with their own bus or Use the rear 1/4'' sockets as a patchbay in stand-alone mode. On the face of it, they're simple analogue effects - a bit old-fashioned, really - but that's the charm of them. They've perfectly useable and immediately accessible, so you'll have great fun fiddling with the settings - try sweeping the EQ frequency, or riding the delay time for on-the-fly munchkinisation, for instance.
Even better, you'll find new ways to patch the modules together. Everything - in, out and sidechain - is accessible from the rear panel (there's a default path from left to right across the rack if you don't want to use patch cords) so you can create LFO-modulated delay effects, frequency-sensitive compression ... you think of it, you can do it.
STEREO COMPRESSOR/LIMITER - A high quality stereo comp/limiter with variable input, slope, attack and release controls, and a switched 'key' input that can link both channels...handy for de-essing, ducking etc. It's pretty much 'invisible' when used as a limiter, only squeezing when the threshold is crossed (depending on the ratio setting). Great for laying vocal tracks, mix thickening, fattening up drums, percussions and bass. In fact, it can make anything sound 'phat' but still retains that important top-end clarity.
MULTI-DELAY - This exciting module opens the way to high quality time domain effects including ADT, chorus, echo, vibrato and reverb. It features a built-in limiter, auto-optimising bandwidth, true spatial stereo outputs and multi reflection reverberation.
MODULATION OSCILLATOR - A CV modulation source whose features include sinewave output, variable duty cycle, key or CV controlled depth, triggerable sweeps and two independently variable outputs. Used with the muli-dealy to create chorus, flanging etc.
DYNAMIC NOISE FILTER - An effective single ended, easy to use, stereo noise reducer which will be found invaluable in any home studio set up to enhance the signal to noise ratio of outboard effects including those which exhibit digital quantisation noise.
STEREO NOISE GATE – This is a pro noise gate. Variable threshold, attack, release controls, with a 'hold' timer control to keep the gate open for a predetermined time after triggering from the switched 'key' input on the back panel. Good sensitive threshold control, it really enables you to home in on that elusive area between the sounds you want and the sounds you don't, with the threshold setting staying put and not 'drifting'.
POWER SUPPLY MODULE – Supplies regulated 12v DC power to all of the above modules via the 240v mains lead. It's got an on/off switch and an LED. It sits at the end of the rack.
Based on a circuit in Handmade Electronic Music by Nicolas Collins. Uses a CMOS 4093 quad NAND gate IC. Rotary switch selects once of six capacitors for selectable pitch range of OSC 2.
Plenty firewood here. I was away at the time. Recalled to Gutersloh. Apparently there was a station on the Dutch border that needed a NCO. There were only about 6 guys there. We were all billeted in the local hotel - the Hotel Hoevelmann, Xanten, near the Rhine. When I was there the great river was about to overflow, so the locals opened the flood gates and deliberately flooded the neighbouring fields.
1. Product Overview :
XT1511 side is a smart LED control circuit and light emitting circuit in one controlled LED source, which has the shape of a 4020 LED chip. Each lighting element is a pixel, and the intensities of the pixels are contained within the intelligent digital interface input. The output is driven by patented PWM technology, which effectively guarantees high consistency of the color of the pixels. The control circuit consists of a signal shaping amplification circuit, a built-in constant current circuit, and a high precision RC oscillator.
The data protocol being used is uni-polar NRZ communication mode. The 24-bit data is transmitted from the controller to DIN of the first element, and if it is accepted it is extracted pixel to pixel. After an internal data latch, the remaining data is passed through the internal amplification circuit and sent out on the DO port to the remaining pixels. The pixel is reset after the end of DIN. Using automatic shaping forwarding technology makes the number of cascaded pixels without signal transmission only limited by signal transmission speed.
The LED has a low driving voltage (which allows for environmental protection and energy saving), high brightness, scattering angle, good consistency, low power, and long life. The control circuit is integrated in the LED above.
2. Main Application Field:
●Full color LED string light, LED full color module, LED super hard and soft lights, LED guardrail tube, LED appearance / scene lighting
● LED point light, LED pixel screen, LED shaped screen, a variety of electronic products, electrical equipment etc..
3. Description:
●Top SMD internal integrated high quality external control line serial cascade constant current IC;
●control circuit and the RGB chip in SMD 4020 components, to form a complete control of pixel, color mixing uniformity and consistency;
●built-in data shaping circuit, a pixel signal is received after wave shaping and output waveform distortion will not guarantee a line;
●The built-in power on reset and reset circuit, the power does not work;
●gray level adjusting circuit (256 level gray scale adjustable);
●red drive special treatment, color balance;
●line data transmission;
●plastic forward strengthening technology, the transmission distance between two points over 10M;
●Using a typical data transmission frequency of 800 K bps, when the refresh rate of 30 frames per sec

This is the CPU board with a 8-bit microcontroller PIC12F629, a 20MHz crystal and a bypass capacitor to reduce the noise. This little board goes into a 70-210mm f/2.8 lens and an identical one is made for a 28mm f/1.8 lens. There is an internal oscillator but can only run at 4 MHz which is too slow for this application.
This is the foundation for some other modules I'm building... have good working prototypes of a keyboard and an Ondes Martenot style controller for it so far.
I've added inputs for both oscillators so it can be played more like a normal musical instrument... 90% of the time I'm using the Ondes Martenot controller through oscillator 1, but I also have a neat little keyboard I made that gets some use. I'd like to make a tannerin/ribbon controller for it, but am having a lot of trouble finding something* with the proper resistance. For my next trick, I'm doing a CV input for oscillator 2 and an optical sequencer for oscillator 1. Thanks to Hack-A-Day for some of the mods and Diet Coke and Penguin Mints for the rest.

* finding something means scouring my junk-filled guitar store slash laboratory... I could probably do the static strap controller if I really worked at it, but the ondes controller is so freakin' cool that I'm happy for now.
This is the bridge over the River Elbe at Lauenburg - one of the crossing points into East Germany . . . note the trucks on the bridge. It was one of the main supply routes into Berlin! My pal and I had a meal in one of the local hotels - a Bauernfrühstück! (a farmer's breakfast, ie an omlette full of things). It was delicious!

Here's my build of the Dual Digital Oscillator, blacked out version. PCB is from Lazerkind/PT-Audio.
This is the rear view of the Wagner desk fan. You can easily see the oscillator mechanism perched on the back of the motor.
See tubetime.us/?p=17 for more.
The next two Wiard modules being put out by Malekko are the Anti-Oscillator and the Noisering. These two should be available around the end of July. The Noisering is the same as the Wiard 1200 series but with the addition of a toggle switch that will make the jack above it a clock input or clock output. The Anti-Oscillator is a new analog oscillator from Grant Richter with some very interesting waveshaping capabilities. Congrats to Malekko for getting the Wiard stuff out in Eurorack so efficiently!

Another view of the 2 radars. Forget about that. The scene you see here is no longer. It is now completely gobbled up by a huge industrial estate. The place will never be the same again.
The PicoPaso is a stepped tone noise noise synth by Dr. Bleep.
It's similar to the Atari Punk synth, aka Forrest Mims' stepped tone generator, but uses two triangle wave oscillators that can be combined or used separately. A wave shaper and square wave LFO can be used to increase the aural ridiculousness.
More info here.
Get it at Bleep Labs.
Still can't see the outline of the air corridor in that photo, but I assure it was there. That was the main "raison d'etre" for being there. Sorry, no accents!!
A working example of the Trackmate Tracker communicating with SuperCollider. Starts a sine oscillator in left and right speakers. Left speaker frequency = tag x location, right speaker frequency = tag y location. Very boring.
I compiled the Trackmate Tracker to sent LusidOSC messages to port 57120, not 3333 since SuperCollider will only listen on that port.
The newest version of the Tracker has support for changing the port now, but it is only available as source.
SuperCollider code:
// Super Simple SuperCollider LusidOSC script. (SuperSimpleCollider?)
// First boot the server
(
s = Server.local;
s.boot;
)
(
var id, thetaToFreq, alive;
var xVal = 0;
var yVal = 0;
var theta = 0;
id = "0xBF82C7B4F1DA"; //Hard coded id of one trackmate tag.
alive = false;
// Definition of a synth
// One sine oscillator in each channel
SynthDef("sine", { arg freqX, freqY;
var osc;
osc = SinOsc.ar([freqX,freqY], 0, 0.1);
Out.ar(0, osc);
}).send(s);
// Starts a synth
s.sendMsg("/s_new", "sine", a = s.nextNodeID, 1, 1, "freqX", 440, "freqY", 440);
// The important bit!
// This code listens to OSC messages from the Trackmate Tracker
o = OSCresponderNode.new(NetAddr.new("127.0.0.1", nil), "/lusid/1.0", {
arg time,responder,msg;
(msg[1].asString == "set").if({
(msg[2].asString == id).if({
xVal = 100 + (msg[3]);
yVal = 100 + (msg[4]);
theta = msg[8];
//("Location:" + xVal + yVal + theta).postln; // debug
s.sendMsg("/n_set", a, "freqX", xVal * 16); // set x oscillator
s.sendMsg("/n_set", a, "freqY", yVal * 16); // set y oscillator
// nothing mapped to rotation yet!
});
});
}).add;
)
// Stop the Responder!
(
s.sendMsg("/n_free", a);
o.remove;
)
The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328
It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started.

General Radio 1603-A Z-Y Bridge:
A lab-grade Z [Impedance] - Y [Admittance] instrument from 1959 to 1961. It listed for $695. That was a ton of money. It still needed the optional 20Hz to 20KHz oscillator and a narrow, low noise detector. I actually downloaded the manual for it a few days ago. I bought it for $50 about 10 years ago. Unfortunately very few of todays hams know or would even bother to learn how to use it. It has been collecting dust. I will try to hook it all up and se if it "jives" with component values and reading from a more modern LCR bridge. [If you call 1975 modern] With a 20hz input it can read well into the Henry range of inductance! I know, I know Zzzzzzzz.
However as art:
Well the dials look like something out of the movie Brazil, so I tried to capture the macabre array of dials close-up.
