I think that could be interesting for other members!

Hi Tuxbar, are there any news on the second batch?

I have received needed components two weeks ago, but I really had no time to work onto the switchers.
I'll begin them the next week.

Hi Hal,

There is no more V2 or V1 version for the PAL version since I have designed the ribbon switcher with an universal PCB which is connected onto the ROM sockets as shown into the pictures of the first post.
To anwser to your question, no kit version.

Kind regards

Aaa ok, I see. Is the floppy drive still fits? It looks like this ribbon cable might not fit under the fd.

Any news when can we expect the second batch? I think some of us might be able to assembly this by themselves, maybe it's an option for quicker delivery?

Hello,

The Switcher is not available as kit, and will not be. The second batch is started. There are 17 switchers to assemble before yours. You are at the end of the list, you'll have to wait the necessary time.
As I don't ask for money before that the switcher is ready, there is no deadline. When some switchers are ready, I contact members in the list. Asking every week will not change anything.

Priority is given to the first batch of the switcher for A500 / 2000.

If you can't wait, you can withdraw you interest.

Kind regards,
Franck.

Interesting rules added on the top of the first post of the thread.

 

[Hal]

I do not wanted to hurry up, that was not my intention. Just wanted to make things easier for you. I understand you do not want to sell as a kit because of warranty issues and so on. Rules are clear, so I'm waiting patiently Really appreciate your work for the Amiga community.
