Bill didn't write that, I did.
I was able to find the Nov 1976 Byte online but not
the
Mar 1977 issue. Does anyone have the errata scanned?

Author Steve Ciarcia sent our way
(via his friend Chris Morgan who stopped
by one recent Saturday) the following
correction to his article "Make Your
Next Peripheral a Real Eye Opener" on
page 78 of the November 1976 BYTE. In
the schematic of pages 84 and 85 (fig-
ure 2), we (Steve or CH at BYTE? Who
knows?) omitted notation of the nega-
tive supply pin for the MC1408-L8
digital to analog converters, IC4 and IC5.
Pin 3 of each 1408 should be wired to
the -15 V supply.
