He is on linkedIn.
There is scant info on the JOLT. You may have more luck with the super
jolt. 6502 Micro Journal may have useful detail.
I will.have access to the kennett classic library next weekk, and I can
check then if you dont have any leads before that. I know there are at
least some original Jolt materials but I dont recall specifically the
schematic. I assume you saw the photos on

Hi there,Haven't had much time for vintage computers due to my job
dealing with new ones, but the odd evening I have been working on PCB
replica projects.One of them is for the MAI Jolt. I recently picked up
alsome NOS 6530-004s, and thought it'd be a fun replica to try. I have
completed the backside in KiCAD by tracing photos of the board i found
online, but unfortunately the only decent photo I was able to find of the
top side has components installed, and I am not good with electrical
guesswork.I don't know exactly how the JOLT was originally sold (kit?
Assembled?) but I'm thinking if MAI were like most pioneers then they
almost certainly would have provided a schematic to end users for
modifications and troubleshooting.Does anyone know if such a thing exists?
I've been searching the usual places without success.Or if anyone out there
has a bare board (I know, I know heh).. and wouldn't mind sending a photo
or two..BradSent from my Galaxy
Maybe reach out to Ray Holt, the designer.
