Declaring interest in REV G board ( abandoned see REV H1)

Can we have a bank of power sockets i.e. not just CN2 but CN3 & 4 & 5.

This will make plugging in other devices a lot easier.

Still sure that my wife will kill me for this, but this time I am in for one too

Just a quick note that this project will resume in a few weeks.. Basically I need to do a whole lot of measuring with holes and chip locations next. It will take some time to complete anyway.. I think all the circuit changes I did already.

But more to the point is there needs to be at least 10 people interested in the board otherwise the cost per PCB just gets silly. 20 boards is a more reasonable figure to keep costs something sane.

Edit:

I will remove the falcon ram card for a single sink socket when I get chance also. I think it was talked about in another thread before...

And a single simm socket. Plumbings going to be a bugger.

Count me in again please.

So to recap for my own sanity there are currently two versions in the Mongrel Edition section. Rev G and Rev H1.

Rev G is basically a fixed version of the original STF Remake with all the patches in place a few tweaks (SIMM slot) and layout in line with the original case with floppy holes too. Correct me if I am wrong Exxos

Rev H1 is the enhanced version with various add-ons, ideas documented in the Mongrel Edition section and a future project in the making.

Nice remake roadmap shaping up there Exxos.

Count me in for +2 Rev G boards - always good to have a spare.

Exxos, little surprised here.

Just ask this very question in the thread referenced in the html link and to my understanding you said you were restocking the store now prior to job demands occurring later this year and subsequent to the store restock and work demands you wouldn't have any avail time to respin the board this year. Have also become confused by what rev's denote..

so I would take "TWO"of the board with connector spacing fixed, know electrical bugs fixed, and any minor upgrades added that would not endanger connector alignments with un-fu*kit boards.

If this is a supper duper all new design with a plethora of improved and new capabilities I'll take "one"..

So in closing I really like the initial board we all built, great video presentation with aboslutely no screen artifacts , solid as rock..!! Only issue is one can't put it in a case.. and as much as I like my atari box case its not a long term solution and far from a closed case.

Probably better put me down for two, for when I break the first one.
