Thanks

OK. Basically just desolder the chip on there and put in a socket.

However, a few weeks later the C64 it was connected to died a
spectacular death (all memory chips fried).  Not sure if it was
related, but proceed with caution.

There's a company in Australia that makes "blank" cartridge PCBs for
holding 8K EPROMs, I had a bunch (none left, sorry!) and they worked
really well.

I was thinking of buying a few more as  they're great for little
projects like this.  If you want some, let me know and we can get a
group order.

Anyone else interested?

Regards,
Leif
