Er lebt. Ist auf Anhieb angesprungen. Das erste Mal mit bleifreiem Lötzinn von Stannol gelötet. Bin überrascht wie gut das geht.

Ich werde alt. Mitten beim Basteln geht mir das Lötzinn aus. Das war mein letzter Vorrat bleihaltiges Lötzinn. So ein Mist. Also Zwangspause.

Not one, but *two* new gadgets for the PAL-1 computer ... Happy Easter! #mos6502 #PAL1 #HappyHacking6502

I've reimagined the KIM-1 ZipTape as a PAL-1 gadget, with snap-off RIOT adapter for those who don't already have one (i.e. me!)

Finally got round to a quick test of the PAL-1 serial i/f (here in its ttl form) ... sadly a simple loopback test fails, and worse, I won't have time to look at it again in detail until Monday. #pal1 #mc6850 #fail #retrocompting

Lookie here ... the PAL-1 Serial Interface Adapter boards have arrived at last. These can be built with either a DB9 RS-232 or 5v TTL connector.
