Hi,

Great, many thanks you gave me the idea.

I found a solution slightly different.

I have some spare arduino connectors, with 6 thin pins.
As they are flat it's even possible to make them slightly thinner.

I can build a connector with 3 x 6pin arduino connectors.
Mounted on a small board.

Thanks

Yes, I took a dead 6526 CIA and bent pins 22-39 out straight. Cut all the other pins away and, if you're ok with a bit of fine soldering, you have enough room to solder some wires for probes. I did this a couple of years back to build a keyboard dongle for the +4/116.

I guess other 40 pin DIL chips might work but I recall looking for something that was unlikely to mess with the signals.
