I've been having problems with broken LK201s, so
as a workaround I created an adapter that connects to a standard PC USB keyboard and makes

Question to the list: is this something that would be of interest to others? If yes, I
can make the design available. Perhaps the PCB layout and parts list.
Yes
I have a number of Rainbows, DECmates, VT220s, VT240s, etc. I also
have some LK201s but fewer every year as they die.
I don't think I want to get into building units
for others, though.
Completely understandable. Building them at home with a Trinket as a
base doesn't sound difficult, PCB or point-to-point.
I look forward to seeing the design.
