Something is getting et, that's for sure. I didn't see your ORIGINAL post, so I
can only infer from the answers you are getting that you want some sort of
miniaturized "find the runway" strobe system (rabbit). How many lights? LEDs
would be find; white ones are down to a couple of bucks in onesies these days
and those suckers are BRIGHT.

One wall wart power supply, one small piece of CMOS (simple counter) and your
lights. Even YOU could do this, Jay.

So, how many lights and what kind of sequence. I'll send you the parts for free
and instructions to go with them. I'll do it for a free beer at Oshkosh.

shared these priceless pearls of wisdom:

- I just told them how to do it. Somebody said they can follow my plans and
-they
- can do it.
-
- And you give THEM a free room?

-Hmmm. I've checked and re-checked the thread, and all I see here is Tom's
-post detailing the construction of said chasing lights.

-Did my ISP eat your post, Jim?
