Hi Herb & Jon,
The 64K static RAM DRC/Tanner Computers design must have really got
around as I also have the exact board sold by COEX except it uses a
large TO-3 5V regulator instead of 2 smaller TO-220 5V regulators.
Everything else is identical including the component legend/silkscreen.
I also have a 32K Tanner Computers board that also uses 2K RAMs or
EPROMs that is very similar, only half the capacity.
Regards,
Jeff
