Andy Welburn is at Shoutime's place working on dumping the spaghetti wire Dive Bomber Squad pcb (Kyuukoukabakugekitai). I asked Shoutime to look into dumping Hangzo soon too. This is an update to this fundraiser:

All 4 of the spaghetti OTPs have been desoldered, socketed and dumped successfully. Big thanks to Andy for his tireless effort on this.

We now have identified 12 PROMs on the board that need the same work performed but are much less hairy.

Congrats. You got one of the 'top 10' experts worldwide that can do that work with a rare pcb and have pcb working when assembled again.

Good luck with remaining work with that pcb.

He makes the work look so easy in that photo even though it isn't.


I am curious what the work photo environment setting would look like if Andy works with dumping/reading data out from the Kee Games Quiz Show tapes later.
