Re: Any experience on KIM-1?

["Don" <numberfiveplusone@gmail.com>]

I've got one of these [just the single board, no add-ons] in a box
somewhere.  It was used as part of student project I worked on while at
university [mid- 70's] and I "inherited" it afterwards.

One of the "cool" things it had available was a current-loop interface for a
TTY.  If you can find a terminal device that supports current loop (or make
an adapter) you can get at the monitor/debugger without using the keypad/LED
on the board.
