Emax

The rack emax that I bought off ebay recently had an external scsi  
port that looks factory to me. I can't test if it is good or not as I  
stole the chips and connector to make my keyboard SCSI, and when it  
arrived it was already "non-working".

  I do know it basically had a bad floppy controller chip for sure,  
and that the fuse holder is missing.... dunno how much of the rest of  
it is good or bad, but I know the scsi chips worked in my keyboard,  
and so I might have parts available if interest is out there.... for  
instance for the board that already has the external scsi connector  
there, ready to be attached to.....if someone didn't want to do that  
soldering / modification to rev 1 boards it would be a good choice.  
They are rev 3 boards...

Or for someone who has a flaky emax, these might enable you to make 1  
good working emax set.... the jacks off one of the boards were broken  
in shipping, but if you had one or two ports that need replacing,  
then you would have some to trade out...

just a couple of ideas....

thanks,
Ted
