I can't find the manual for the bit-banger card (I know I have it
_somewhere_). I did find one of the actual cards, the PCB etch and the
PROMs are copyright 1978.
I also found the manual for the Communication Card you have. It's _also_
copyright 1978, the date on the schematic and source listing in the
manual are 1978 too...
Sounds like the cards were approximately contemporary.

So what is suprising that the Apple 'went
backwards' from a card with
hardware serial conversion to a bit-banger.
Maybe they didn't? What's the copyright date in the Apple Serial Card
manual? I'll check the one in the Communications Card manual.
