Hi Jan,

I have upgraded the Q68 FPGA firmware to v1.05 last week and everything
is working fine, no lock-ups. However, using 40MHz SDHC clock gets
corrupted file reads, at least when using the original Q68 SDHC card. So
Oh well, if Peter Graf can upgrade my Q68 to v1.05 in May I might be

Please remind me prior to the QL meeting so I bring the equipment and

I might be able to get a second hand FPGA programmer for cheap, I'll let
you know when I get it.
