I think that might take me a while to unpick, but I’m very interested in trying it. My 200 has become a bit of a daily driver and is quite a productive little system, so anything that adds another dimension is well worth a look.
I have a second 200, currently dead as a Dodo, which I hope to get working and experiment with, and this is just the kind of thing I would want it try on it. Which incidentally… anyone here able to troubleshoot and repair a 200?! It was working until recently, but now shows no sign of life. I was going to take it apart, but a few YT videos tell me that my (very) basic soldering iron and multimeter, and minimal skills, are rather unlikely to be enough! > Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2023 12:08:19 -0400 > From: "Brian K.
