No changes required... just drop it in there. Same goes for a PET.
Oh... a little
tip - I have proven that the 6520 on the display board can
be replaced with an 6821 (I have a number of 6821s since they were used to
drive the printer port and the diagnostic display for the original COMBOARD
model).
That's good to know. Can a 6821 simply be dropped in it's place or does
it require any other changes? I've seen a lot of displays around that look
like these. I should pick up
some for spares.
They don't tend to fry, but they do get dim with age (as do all LEDs)
