Hi Brooke,

I go by memory here, but I believe it is a pair of DE-DP13112 (P4 32X8 3208 Red LED Dot Matrix Unit Board SPI Like), which are currently on sale for $11 ea. I bought mine on eBay.

Cheers,

Bert, VE2ZAZ

I elected to design my own clock display instead. Mine is fed by a Garmin GPS-35 GPS and it uses a 64 x 8 LED array for the display. It is driven by a PIC18F1220 with custom firmware.
