Bob Hall Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Holiday Coro style. Mine can be seen from space.That's why I'm having a sign made for me and moving away from the holiday coro one. My sign is the 1xx.x and with LED multis in it, it "annoyingly" shines across the lake in the development and has been called a 'blue pulsar'. Since I don't have a lake front property but am across the road from a lake front property, I drove across to the area where the complaint came from and they were correct. Over 1/8 mile away, it's a bright beam of light shooting across the openess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iflights Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 1st year for me and I was surprised how blindingly bright 600 LEDs stuck into a 18x34 panel was. So I've decided to flash the sign for exactly 10 seconds at the start of each sequence, I dim it to 50% for the sequence until the last 30 seconds or so of the sequence, where I turn it off completely so the sequence can be completed without any visual distractions.

I guess the next step would be sequencing it fully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce685 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I was able to get one of those red scrowling LED signs at 90% off at target. Hooked it up to a old mower battery and placed it on a post at the road. This way i could program what i wanted and even show info and length.

MagicMike Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I took a photo from a Tune to sign found on the web and printed it out in postersize. Taped them together and taped to a 18 x 28 Cor-Plastic. Then used a punchto make the holes. Removed the paper drilled the punched holes larger. Thenpushed min light through. It. Cost was $20 bucks. But took a while to finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazydave Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I think i spent $60 on my sign.. but the vinyl was free to me.. so I don't know it's value.Everyone thinks I put a LCD-TV in the box it's bright and looks awesome!I have smart pixels in the box to light it up.

jtomason Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 OK, the coro sign I ordered didn't show up until today. Having no time to do mini-lights, I went el cheapo for this year. I got a plain coro white 24"x18" board from Lowes, and printed out a sign (in 4 different parts - "TUNE", "TO", "90.3" and "FM") in large letters, cut them out, and taped/covered them with packing tape. Not great, but it looks good enough for 10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
