Bad Morrison? WTF?
Maybe there's a tiny tape of a Doors song that never made an album cut

Re: SB9600 tools
Thanks for trying Casey. Sure I'd be interested in any samples of
SB9600 traffic.
My ebay VHF X9000 showed up today, but I don't have a cable or head

Mine too!
The SMT osc resonator was the hardest thing to solder. I think I'll change it back to a through-hole if I have more PCBs made.

Re: DIY Xcats
I was writing the other while you were writing this. Sounds like I may have to build a programming adapter access the appropriate pins on the Xcat, like you did.

In the picldr, the first two bytes (0000-0001) are 0000 2832, then bytes 0002-000F are 3FFF, then it looks like the picldr code begins in
