Today's winner was in White Dolphin Functionally Extinct being the singsong solongandthanksforallthefish.
This evening, I decided to add a crystal oscillator and clock divider (i.e. a 4520 counter) to some spare space on the board which I soldered up the 16 bit counter with tristate outputs. Basically, I soldered the circuit up such that you put a jumper on either the output of the crystal oscillator, or one of the 8 outputs from the 4520. This sends the square wave signal to two output pins - one via an inverter (NOT gate), and one straight - so there's both the clock signal and an inverted vers
so the miserable bastards found me and decided to bestow on me a "christmas present" (my term, i have to put a silver lining on this thing).
