Well these 15 LED's have been lit off 1 rechargeable AAA battery for 12.5 hours and still going..
It has already almost doubled the time of a normal JT.

Excellent.
I assume you mean that circuit you asked about yesterday?

5k, 50k or 1meg ohms potentiometer, it does not matter much.
but what is really helpfull is its resolution.

multi turns potentiometer are best to set a precise resistance.

It may be worthwhile to wind a j/t in KLM fashion or to incorporate one or two into the j/t circuit.

These KLM coils are really cutting edge thinking.

@ Jim:

Thank you my friend.  You are a good man.

@ All:

I finally managed to pick up my scope from the Post Office here.  It is great and seems to work on both channels.  It has complete documentation and manual and, a bonus guide on how to use o'scopes.  My probes arrived yesterday so now, I just need to read a lot and get started.  This will be fun.
