Evening All.
I noticed on another thread viewtopic.php?p=107628#p107628 that @rubber_jonnie was using an internal RTC connected to the cartridge slot.
Does anyone know if these PCBs (blank or otherwise) can be purchased anywhere? I looked in the usual places but couldn't find any.
Also, does the cartridge slot still work OK using this RTC method?

Its was these https://exxosforum.co.uk/atari/last/RTC/index.htm
I may still have the odd PCB but I never sold them in my store as wasn't much interest in them.

Shame. If you ever find them I wouldn't mind giving one a try one day.exxos wrote: 26 Oct 2023 17:42 Its was these https://exxosforum.co.uk/atari/last/RTC/index.htm

I'd love to have proper timestamps :)

If you do a store order in the future , remind me and I will have a look and just pop it in the box with the other stuff.chronicthehedgehog wrote: 26 Oct 2023 17:53 Shame. If you ever find them I wouldn't mind giving one a try one day.

Re: STE RTC boards
Hmm, with me thinking _when_ I should fit the RTC and battery into my H4/H5 boards (probably never given my usual rate of non-progress)...the idea of having it working on some of my original STFMs is quite attractive too...
So @exxos if you do find a load of them, I'd be interested in some of them as well. :mrgreen:

If anyone does a order to the store I can include a board if you let me know. I can likely include the osc and battery holder as well.
