Modified my Tektronik TDS520 scope to have a USB stick. Replaced the low profile floppy drive with a emulated floppy drive with USB on it. Parker bought it here on ebay. Stephen  Synth update. PCBs should arrive next week. To match the transistors for the synth, Stephen is going to use his transistor matcher to test them. See that project here. Stephen needs 6 matched BC547C transistors. He is going to buy 100 transistors ($5.70) so that he can pick the best 6 that match. The Open PLC that Parker and Stephen have been talking about is finally doing something!  Building a hand place bench Controls sensors and barcode scanner Stephen is also going to use it in a museum project
