Co., Inc., Everett, WA Lines: 14 Can someone please give me a pointer to a magazine article or plans or advice on building an led (or other light) reader board. The display will be for a trade show booth. I'd like to dump ASCII characters into a circuit that drives a n X n character font pattern. The message should scroll across the display. The display can be dumb, with the computer managing the timing and repeating, ect. Any ideas? Thanks, Chuck Bowden / WB7R / chuckb@tc.fluke.com / (206) 356-6228 John Fluke Mfg.
