I have a few of these articles: "A collection of articles for Microsystem troubleshooter users" dated 1983 (I believe it is the years collection), Vol 2 #1, Vol 3 #1 and Vol 3 #2, Vol. I was wondering if anyone has others in this series. They are for the 9000 series devices, and if someone would like to scan them and send to Al, I think they might be useful stored on Spies. One article of interest is showing how to make one pod cover a number of microprocessors, for example: the 6502 can be adapted with a simple pair of sockets to cover the 6503, 6504, 6507, and 6512. How to modify the 8085 pod to handle the NSC800, and others-some useful, some not so (Z80 --> 2650).
