ADT uses the SSC pretty wholeheartedly. However, some of these other
cards are also pretty amazing clones in their own right. With all that
'junque' added, they still perform as good as the original.

But this card doesn't appear to have any 28-pin components, so I'm
thinking it'll have a hard time pretending to be a 6551.  ;-)

it uses a 6550 uart i have found out cables from the asio board will
also work and these were also made by a company called transend


That's good news.  I had completely forgotten about the 6550, which I
assume has the same bit rate generator as the 6551.  If there are
any differences in the control registers or behavior, then it may
not work with ADTPro.
