Well today has certainly taken a turn for the worst with the news that a very knowledgeable and helpful guy called Francesco, known on the forums as Zabanitu has died in road accident.
Zab has contributed much to my site over the last year and a half and always had time for me if I needed to ask him anything, Ive also heard others say the same.

Rest in peace Zab, you will be a great loss to your friends and family as well as the arcade community.

caius has dumped 5 PALs from a Robocop 2 board.
All tested and ready to go on a GAL16V8.

Thanks caius

As I now have a lot of Spy Hunter boards to fix I thought it best to hack together some kind of test box.
I now have an Absolute Position PCB so the rest is just wiring.
Here is the finished product.

Ive tested this today on a board set and it works very well. The only think left to add to my Spy Hunter test rig is Cheap Squeak support.
That will probably be added once all these boards have been repaired though.

Elgen has dumped 3 more PALs from Wizard Fire.
As with the other one these are untested due to the board being a non worker.

Thanks to Elgen

A few days ago my good friend Elgen took his first step into the crazy world of PAL dumping. His first submission comes in the form of a PAL from Wizard Fire. Its from a non working board so this isnt tested. There are also a few other PALs on this board but he believes the VA-00 PAL is defective.
Hopefully this marks the beginning of many more from Elgen.

Next up, reliable caius has sent in 3 PAL dumps from a Taito game called Fighting Hawk. Never heard of this one before but here is a complete set from that board.
Thanks as always to caius.
