Hi Fred, Greatly appreciate your time and efforts there, thanks.
All printed out and the fun is ongoing.
I've discovered they used a technique in the olden days of wrapping wires around pins. This is going to cause me problems as a lot of them have since been soldered over, presumably to improve the integrity of the connection.

I'm thinking I may do well to cut all the wires in the middle of the runs and fit some form of micro bullet connectors so the boards are removable now and in the future. I bet I'm not the first to do this...

Lots to learn here.
