Oh I forgot, also my catweasel mkIV http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Individual ... _Catweasel has decided to work again, so I can finally try the Amiga version on a real A2000 at last!

very very very bloody nice

Now that's cool. How exactly are you getting this to receive channel data? is it through serial

I see a serial dongle adapter thing sitting on top of the 130xe - so I would say with some certainty yes!

Yep! As tin said, you can see my SIO2PC (Atarimax) board with the red light sitting on top of the Atari. The one thing about the ones from Atarimax is that you have to do some weird things to get it to figure out that you want to just use raw serial communications. You have to do something with the DSR pin to get it out of "Pro mode".
