Hi Rich! Thanks! That's fantastic! Please keep us posted on your
progress.
Would you mind please posting some photos and details of your build on the
N8VEM wiki?
http://n8vem-sbc.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder¶m=S-100%20backpla
ne
I get quite a few questions on the N8VEM S-100 backplane and other builders
will benefit from your experiences. Did you notice Don made a parts list
for the board and also some frequently asked questions?
Thanks and have a nice day!
Andrew Lynch
