[Coco] coco cartriges

Jim,

If the socket sits above the board, it will be too thick.

Pin sockets allow flush mounting and a .031" thick board, just makes it.

Thanks for the offer though. Took a few revs to get it correct.

Ah, I see.  I have a source for entire sockets that are that thin, if 
you are interested.  They are not cheap, but might be cheaper than your 
current hand soldered option.

Obviously, if one needs an EPROM, the item is the best fit.  I typically 
use ROM-el in that scenario, which is a 128kB FLASH ROM, and can be 
programmed in most programmers with a small adapter (to adapt 2364 back 
to 27XX(X) pinouts.
