Just sitting here having a few beers with the soldering iron out.
(Adding the switches for the rom selector. I'm hiding them under the cart port.
1 SPST selects chip enable, turn it off and no more built in dos rom.
2 SPST select 16k bank
3 DPDT with off position, select lower 32k region with no autostart (pins 7 and 8 on the cart), select upper bank with no autostart, and select upperbank with autostart.
Coconet and Drivewire on the lower half, Dungeons Of Daggaroth / Arkanoid on the top half.
At least this is what I hope it will do when I'm done.
Was trying to add video and audio out to the same daughter board while I was at it. I can come back and add that later.
Have fun and enjoy the family.
Later,
dabone

Hey, all of that was my Son's so I'll have to go have a look at it. I'll get
right back with you. John is finally home but him and his cousins are
spending some time together. I was so happy to see the kid :) Let me have a
look and see if he may have mixed something up when he put them into EAGLE
from the hand drawn ones. I think they were tested on the CoCo 1 which has
the MC1372 on the mobo... John assumed they'd work with the CoCo 2 which has
the 1372 in the RF can - let me check and i'll get back to you. I am sitting
here putting together a data separator out of flip-flops, VCO and phase
detector (the 9216B's seem hard for me to find so i'm looking at a discrete
solution)...
