I did try that, to no avail, but have not tried it with the SuperPET 6809.

I agee, which is why I think my "breadboard" setup is wrong, but not 
sure where I'm going wrong.  I bring upZ80s and 6502 and AVRs all the 
time no problem, so I'm not completely inept at this.

It's possible I've fried my 6309 CPU, but it seems strange I've toasted 
both of them.
