Now that the MEM11A boards are back, I'll be getting a bit bolder in
doing board projects. The "Unibus Analyzer" board will probably go out
next week for prototypes (layout is all done, just contemplating if I
should make one change).
I've also pretty much blocked out a blinken lights & switches project
for non-blinken lights unibus 11's. Now the problem will be can I get
it all to fit. It's a two board solution: SPC card "in the box" and the
actual switches & lights mounted somewhere outside. At this point it
looks like it'll have all of the functions of a "standard" blinken
lights panel. It'll even be able to do 22 bit addressing (through
"magic"). :-) The only question is that since it'll be doing some
non-standard stuff (not violations of unibus, just things not normally
done) I have to test out a few things to see if what I'm thinking
actually works.
