If there's enough demand, I would be happy to make a few of these boards -
though they would be prototype PCBs and fairly expensive. Short run PCBs
tend to run around $40 each just for the PCB. Everything else would be
around $10. It might be easier to

For Minerva ROM you could try

I have only ever seen the Minerva ROM in emulation packages, is it an actual

complicated than that?
It is. There is a small PCB but it would be easy to wire up a pcb to

I thought Super Gold Card and probably Gold Card did this. The F1/F2
choice is just not there (if you have requested that).
The SCG has a few commands that should be used under QDOS or Minerva,
before a Boot file is run.
