[sebhc] Identify This Board?

Eric,

I'm pretty sure its one of the boards I gave you that I rescued from US
Energy controls, a company that developed custom H8's for building
energy controllers. In addition to a series of control and memory boards
they also developed a custom front panel control pad. Someday (maybe
even before I scan the HDOS source docs), I'll unearth the carton full
of boards and chassis and post some pics.

Meanwhile, I can only hope that I have more outbound than inbound
traffic for a while as I clear the shelves and recharge the hobby budget
account.

best,
Jack
