Bytes would be handier than words.  Any radix is okay, I suppose I have a 
slight preference for hex.

I also put my name in PAM-37, but I can assure you I already had added every 
function I could!  The radix change and z80 register access were not part of 
the original design spec, but they both seemed so "right".  The boss was a 
bit ticked that I went beyond the design spec but I campaigned to keep it in 
- and I did manage to complete it on schedule anyway.

Send me dumps and I'll send you back image files.

PAM-8 was a 2708, I think PAM8GO was a 2716, but I have no idea what the 
extra space was for, as far as I recall the only difference was the default 
content of the PC after reset, so you could boot without loading the H-17 
start address manually.

P.S. What's the URL for the ftp site?
