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

Maybe reach out to Ray Holt, the designer.
