Hi Richard,

The current version won't support more tubes. I will do a 15 or 16 tube
version, but I'm not sure when it will be available, but probably by the
summer. I haven't started working on the hardware or software yet.

The B7971 version will  be available by the end of this month, and the two
digit add-on board, probably a month or two later.

Regards,
Mitch
