why does it scramble @ 20:51:00 ?

turning on some unused digits periodically will "clean" the tubes

keeping the tubes healthy

cathode cleaning to prevent cathode poisoning.

"The Cathode cleaning interval can be set to the time below. From the lifespan/efficacy point of view, all the options are equal.

Every minute – the cathode cleaning will be activated every minutes for duration of 1 second

Every 10 minutes – the cathode cleaning will be activated every 10 minutes for duration of 10 seconds

Every 30 minutes – the cathode cleaning will be activated every 30 minutes for duration of 30 seconds "

Vietnam is really the leading place for leather straps...I am always intrigued how they gain this competitive advantage suddenly

Many major strap brands actually outsourced to VN for manufacture
