Subject: Additional Stooge panels not on list

From: "J. Larry Hendry" <jlarryh@...>

Some people are already asking about panels not on the list. Yes, there are
some new designs in the works. I don't have the graphics from Dave Bradley
yet on the new ones. We will be working that out in the upcoming days. I
know, for example, that there are upcoming CGS Wave Multiplier and Analog
Shift Register panels. And, I think the Blacet Binary Zone is on the wish
list.

Anyhow, new panels get on the list by people asking for them. We don't get
all requests on the list... But, we do what we can. If you have been
working on a new design with Dave, get with him soon to finalize. He may be
out of touch for a couple of days on personal business though. If you don't
see what you are looking for just drop me an e-mail. As these panels are
added to the list I will make announcements so you can add them to your
order if you wish.

A note on the Blacet Miniwave expander. Many of you know Dave Hylander did
some PCBs for this. They support a 9 additional ROMs (total 10) in the
Miniwave with a rotary selector switch. You can use these with your
existing Stooge panel. See Dave's website for MINIwave boards here:

Here are photos of the thumbwheel switch version on an existing Stooge panel
in case you want to economize and stay with the same panel.

Here is the photo of Dave's proposed expander panel with a rotary switch for
ROM selection:

I also have a working prototype PCB that connects to Dave's expander PCB and
adds voltage control to the PROM selection. It also adds 10 LEDs to show
which ROM is in use. The control functions use 2 pots and mimics the
current bank and wave selection. Here is the proposed panel for that panel:

Whether we make one or both of these Miniwave Expander panels will depend on
interest from you guys
