Wow, this list seems to be getting really hostile lately... I suppose I
could
jump in with a comment about the usefulness of applying a spell check
before
"actualyl" posting "soemthign" on a mailing list, at the risk of
being
labeled
"useless."
Oh well... I suppose we all have our crosses to bear.
I've got a bunch of Nuclear Data peripheral
circuit boards that I need
to reverse engineer.
Why "need"? Why not wait until the appropriate docs pop out of the
woodwork? ND made a fair number of those 812 minis, so there is
probably a decent chance that eventually you can use the real deal.
Of course, it is a gamble, and may take years, but the time spent
doing all the reverse engineering could perhaps be better utilized
elsewhere.
It's a hobby (I assume), in which case you can't justify the use of
time. I know that if I was in this postion, I'd start tracing out the
schematics, since then I was doing _something_, and I know of no beter
way to get the scheamtic burned into your mind than to trace it out by
hand. You will spot all sorts of things doing that.

When was the last time you actualyl posted soemthign useful to this list?
