Super excited to get a little box from JLCPCB. To find the next version of The Basic-MC6800 V1b. 

Really loving how the boards are starting to look. Black was really the way to go. 

The finish is nice and clear as well. Really looking forward to getting the other parts for this and building them up.

Over the last few months I have been putting some time into researching the MC6809. The processor is quite well known and is used in most of the Tandy TRS-80 colour computer range (The COCO). which Incidentally has led me to spend lots of time listening to the COCO Talk Podcast. I have also found out that the Hitachi 6309 would also be a good fit for this board with faster clock rates and low power overheads. could be something to experiment with later.

So at the moment I'm just waiting to get some parts to build 1 or 2 of these and see if i can execute some code :)
