How to build a KIM uno on your own?
Order the PCBs from pcbway, order all electronic parts from Aliexpress, program the Arduino, solder everything together, print the case. ( I ordered parts for some more builds - christmas is nigh) #kim1 #kim-1 #65o2

@bbswordle.com Heyyyyyyyyy. I found another bug :D
It seems BBS wordle doesn’t like Italian pasta

90% of my recent „new“ BBS users were not able so send an application email.
- WTF ?
They stopped the registration process instead of sending an ‚Hi‘
There are no other requirements.
I‘m a bit confused 😟

Today I dug out my KIM-1 to test @zoggins.bsky.social I/O board.
Only to find out there is something wrong with the RAM.
sigh. 😔

This is my #BBS Hackerforce running on a RPi. You also see the small LoRa device for the #meshbbs also running on that Pi.

A dead KIM-1? Fix it!
In October 2025 I have revised the page about the KIM-1 diagnostic board with sources of the tests in MOS Technology standard assembler syntax . The EPROM can now be build and modified with modern tools.

The KIM-1 I/O Board by @retro-spy.com arrived today. Now I have a secure way to use my original KIM with a modern PSU. Remember: November 25th is Chuck-Peddle-Day - time to turn on your KIMs and celebrate

Yay! The main #PCB for my MOS #KIM-1 replica arrived today from #JLCPCB! The sub-boards seem to fit. Bringup will take awhile since there's a gross chip-pin-numbering error on one of the smaller boards and I'll have to re-fab it. But I'll be able to partially assemble it and test a few things.

@bbswordle.com Hey alexander, I have a minor problem in bbswordle (dos) that my september scores are not being calculated. The log.dat looks good, does it take one day to be shown or did I find a bug ?
