I did see that R7. There is a fellow in Germany that has replacement
display modules for the 7 Line. I replaced the display module on my R7, and
used 560 Ohm current limit resistors for the display. This keeps the current
down and greatly extends the life of the displays. I think that Drake is
using something like 33 Ohm resistors with the original display module.
I am not sure how he gets things for those low prices either. He did e-mail
me back this morning, explaining that instead of relying on his staff he
needs to do his own research on the items he sells. I don't
know..........maybe he sells so much that he just doesn't know.


Staff?
