I believe you just change the cpu for a faster one inside the pod which is what I did with mine and it worked on arcade boards I was repairing, but I read if the clock speed is too fast then the UUT might not function properly in that case you need the Z80QT pod but just changing the processor turns the pod into a Z80AA Andrew Sent from my iPhone Please excuse any spelling or grammar mistakes as this was sent from my iPhone

Is there a way to upgrade a base Z80 pod or are there lots of EMI based differences between the two... Anyone in the know?

So, I really need to upgrade my Z80 to Z80/AA , the regular Z80 just doesn't cut it when trying to work on Z80B @ 5Mhz .....
So, either i need to upgrade it, or try to pry a /aa or /qt from someones hands.... no, im not trading my 68X09 pod :)
I may have some extra 6800 and 8086 pods.
