I believe you need a crossover cable to wire the machines directly together.

Truer words were never spoken. My batting average on hot-air reflow (either direction) was miserable until I picked up an IR pre-heater. It is possible to work without one, but YMMV.

I ran your BMU0.JED through the conversion under dosbox. Let me know if this works? UPDATE: Here's another conversion from OPALJR.

The old DOS PALASM package had a utility called PALTOGAL.EXE that performs a direct translation of the JED file. Also something similar in the OPALJR package from the same period. Might be worth a try!

With appropriate AUI-to-10Base-T converters you may be able to use them for general localtalk to ethernet bridges.

Odd. I never saw a single problem with the one you sent me. I must lead a charmed life.

Voltage trim adjustment on some supplies (e.g. Astec and others) was done by adding / clipping resistors.

@Oliver_A - Where are you located?

I second that recommendation. I have about a half-dozen Pico Slims sitting on the back of classic macs. Appletalk over Wifi has some minor issues, but it basically works and makes it quite easy to move files around.

That would be helpful. Much as I'd love to have my 68k Macs work with HFS+ on System 7.x trying to follow along with this thread gives me a headache. Short of a plug and play solution, I'd really appreciate a quick recap of how to mod a 68k system.

Wow. Just wow. I'm glad it worked out in the end - but sorry your wallet took the hit.

None of my LCD displays will sync to the 30video's 1024x768 timing. Talked to Joe and it's a known issue.

Did it go to anyone we know?

Sorry to say I never did. However, I'm currently fighting with ZigzagJoe's 30video board in 1024x768 mode. The Extron is very unhappy with the timing. This is the first such case I've seen where nothing would dial in a proper display. The next time I have a Plus or 512 on the bench I will...

Here's a bunch of photos and schematic: https://bit.ly/extron-bt
