I have a home-made logic analyzer that I've used to analyze the IEC 
protocol.  IIRC the C2N232 uses an at90s2313 at 8mhz?  I believe I have a 
2313 I can spare to build a cn232.  I don't really need the connections to 
the c64's tape port for this right?  (except maybe vcc/gnd?).  I have some 
serial(iec) connectors I can hack up for the job but nothing to plug into 
the tape connector.

If I do this, what should I try to sample?  read the command channel?  load 
a file?  My analyzer only has 128k of ram which are good for some 128mS at 
about a sample per cycle.  I could sample a little slower if necessary though.

Comments?

p.s. Yes, I'm working on a IEC<->rs232 project as well :)
