Evening all. I'm gathering the parts now for the build - still a few more to come in but thanks to all that have provided things so far.

Question:

I am assuming all chips should use sockets - what sockets should I use? For my PET work, I used turned pin, but I'm thinking it's better here to use DIL sockets. Is there a 'right way'?

Ta.

Colin.
