What fraction of the people on this list are geeky enough to take the cover off just for the hell of it? :) > You can do quite alot once you have in online.

What are they good for? ------------- Aside from taking it apart, you need to remove a handful of 0R SMT jumpers and put 3 of them back on different places. I think they are 0805. My eyes are pretty old, but I can do 0604 if I have two good soldering irons. 0805s are a piece of cake. Removing them is harder with only one iron, but it's not a big deal (IMHO) if there isn't anything complicated like a connection to a plane that sucks a lot of heat. If you want a PPS signal via RS-232, things get more complicated. The first step is to lift a pin to free up a driver. If you want it on the normal DCD pin, you have to cut a trace. I avoided that by using a convenient unused pin on the DB-25 because I was making my own 25-9 adapter so it was easy to customize it.
