Hi,
seems i'm a bit late to the party, haha.
I am not the super-frequent forum poster i've been a decade ago, but the H4 is again
a project that lives from feedback. I'll provide mine in this thread.
email me on beetle (at) atari (dot) org in case i do not respond here quick enough :)
Yesterday the H4 mainboard arrived here in its shiny glory, what a board!!
First i visited my local electronics shop to see what they can provide.
I got a lot of sockets, most TTLs, a couple of diodes and restors to give it a start.
The rest will be ordered online.
cya,
btl

DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

It's okay to be late and slow. Just means you don't have to find the bugs. ;)

Don't think anyone is late as building only started yesterday :) A few people haven't even got their boards yet.

Re: will it compute? btl's attempt to build the H4
I'll be using a Falcon RAM board also. I upgraded two falcons to the 16mb upgrade from Exxos, so I would like the old ones to be useful.
With the way it is tilting, it looks like it might need a stand off.

These expansion slots are for stuff like this?
and the tilting isn't so bad as it seemed on 1st pic:

TOS, YM, Shifter, MFP and Bad DMA sockets are in...
so, these are the sockets, TTL chips and jumpers that i got in in today's session.
All solder joints have been cleaned and inspected.
I threw two 6850s in as well.
