I live not too far from @wide-lite 1000, so Zanzi's is a pizza place I could try. (After I purchase my next daily car.)
Hopefully this helps me escape... stale stuffed crust pizza from Pizza Hut. :sick:

I listen to pretty much anything as long as it's good/unique, well put together, and has a good beat.
In terms of techno songs, even though the song was a bit too slow in my opinion, when I was a kid, I use to listen to a techno song
from some dude named Ron Boots, a Dutch musical composer. The song was called Twisted Tales, which played on the radio on occasion.
They would play about 9 minutes of the song before moving on to the next song, and I think 9 minutes was good enough anyways.
As a kid, I would download that song, cut it down to just 9:32, then increase the speed and pitch of the song through WavePad Sound Editor.
Other good techno songs that I'd listen to: the majority of the songs from Toonami, on Cartoon Network. And also, a lot of the music from
the TV show Dragon Ball Z, the American version... the music by Bruce Faulconer. The music he created was breath taking.
The commercial for the character "Trunks" is an epic example of what I'm talking about. ("Trunks Promo" on YouTube.) Not sure if it was
him, or Scott Morgan, who played the guitar for that commercial, but, that still remains to be some of the best music I've ever heard
in this lifetime.

@Multisubject — Yeah, it's weird.

I think my biggest flaw lies in speaking too much when the situation does not warrant it. Ie, I can be seen as somewhat "crazy" and "blabbery" but it's simply a symptom of having a brain that operates faster than my mouth can move. As such, I have a tendency to not complete a thought before moving on to the next, especially when I am passionate about a topic. And to backtrack is like to ask me to retrieve a tape that's been thrown to the bottom of a river... not easy. So people can perceive me as "rushed" and "hyperactive", which caused me pretty significant troubles in school (especially public elementary and middle schools), but said issues have waned, but not entirely disappeared as a now-senior in high school. Some people have middle school me instilled in their minds, and refuse to see the fact that I've grown/matured as a person. And some outright hate me, and make it very clear. There is a group of popular, smart guys who essentially exclude me from everything. Ie, I am in AP Calc-BC, but not in the group chat the rest of the class is in, because the guys are popular and have "social jurisdiction" over a large number of people. Actually, one of the people who hates me most is Class President, and he makes his opinions of me very clear.

As such, I've faced what I can only describe as the "social trampling" effect. Where one popular (usually smart) person treats me with derision, and the rest of the group "tramples" me in the coming stampede. Whether they're afraid of opposing these people, or simply have a chance to make their displeasure with me known, it hurts. Lyrics in a ton of Linkin Park and Eminem songs hit harder than they should because most of these people want to see me give up, to see me fail, to watch my downfall and laugh. I've made some friends over the years (mainly in my junior and senior years) who honestly were averse to my presence before, but the number remains relatively low for the above-stated reasons.

But it's whatever. I've already been accepted to Purdue for Materials Engineering, as well as Pitt w/ 10K merit/yr in-state, with many more decisions coming within the next two months. So come June, I won't have to see anyone from my graduating class ever again, unless I choose to reach out.

Honestly any P7 tube of any kind is hard to find. I couldn't find any on Ebay.

One P7 tube I see on Ebay is the 3FP7 , which is also a 3" P7 tube, but with slightly higher voltage characteristics. It might require some tweaks to make it work. But they so use the same socket and the same pinout, and have the same physical dimensions as well.

I don't know what voltage your Heathkit scope runs the CRT on, but if it is around 2kV then you should be relatively good, they seem to have similar characteristics at around that voltage.

Here is one NOS on Ebay for $90, free shipping:

Here is another used and untested one on Ebay for $40 plus shipping:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/235945338281
The getter here looks good, but filament is untested. Also doesn't show a picture of the screen so I don't know if it is burnt in or not.

Hope this helps, good luck with your project there!

Yeah, it shouldn’t be switched, since it’s on a utility pole with a 3 phase transformer on top, but yeah. It could just have been a really luck sight. It was just so bizarre how it was really bright. The lamp isn’t that old, the church was completely rebuilt after it got struck by lightning in 2005. The streetlight should be from around 2007. Ael 115*
