Before leaving the RX01 topic, note that Chuck's design was implemented
using the Cadsoft Eagle years ago and is available at:
http://www.wildharecomputers.com/download/rx0x/rx01-b.zip
A minor update is at:
http://www.wildharecomputers.com/download/rx0x/rx01-d.zip
The idea of putting an SX-28 processor in control of the communications and
using a native USB interface resulted in the (untested) derivative design
at:
http://www.wildharecomputers.com/download/rx0x/rx-usb.zip
and notes and general comments for these designs are at:
http://www.wildharecomputers.com/download/rx0x/notes.txt
And I would seriously consider Diptrace (
www.diptrace.com) if I had to look
at CAD software today, especially compared to Eagle's interface.
Okay, I focus on Data General Novas, Eclipses and MVs, but I teethed on
PDP-8s before 1969... ;-)
