Hello again,
Looking for a construction article that appeared in one of the many electronic hobbyist magazines several years ago.
It was a remote reading wind direction indicator that used a gray code, rotary switch in the sending unit and LEDSs to display the cardinal points of the compass in the remote 'box'. The 4 bit gray code rotary switch was sourced from Digikey if memory serves. Other details of the article, including the name of the magazine have faded away....
Any help appreciated..

I remember that article, so it must have come from: Poptronics (or one of its predecessors),
Electronics Now or Nuts n Volts. No idea which one or when.
