While I'm not Peter, I'm also working to add an ADB port to my Duo 280c. I
have a Dremmel so I could do anything with it. First I used it to grind away
the green protective layer to expose the metal underneath. Then I drilled the
4 holes and 3 mounting slots. Around the 3 (of 4) holes I cut the metal so
there is no connection from that 3 pins and the ground. (4th one is ground
naturally, along with the shield)
When I'm finished with it and before I add the last wire to tap into the ADB
line off the dock connector, I plan to take a couple pictures of it for your
reference.
