[sebhc] Z-100 upgrade modules (ZMAX memory upgrade and ZCLK clock) available

[Robert Groh]

As near as I can decode the instruction sheet -
  1.    No board cuts are needed
  2.   The six chips are: a replacement for U111 (1Kx4 ROM), 2  PAL's for U110 and U173, a 74ALS00 for U155 and a 74ALS10(04) for U166.
  
  I do remember the mod you are describing - in fact, I think I have a  kit for doing that around here somewhere. Never, obviously, installed  either one!

Interesting; what are the 6 specialized chips?  We used to do this
with one multiplexor (74LS157?) and a bent pin on the memory decode
PAL.  Older machines needed a newer monitor ROM as well.
