Hi,

Does anyone happen to have spare, or can anyone point me in the direction of
an inexpensive source for, an extender card for Multibus (the late 70s
microprocessor bus standard)? I know that Digikey and Mouser list them new,
but they are around $120 each.

I'm working on a Lexicon 224 reverb unit (a fascinating device), which uses
a Multibus backplane and eight plug-in cards. I need to be able to work on
these cards with them still attached to the bus - hence the need for an
extender.

Any pointers would be much appreciated. I'm in the UK, but am happy to
import.

Cheers,

Steve L.
