I need to add - I can not provide labor, if you can't move it your self or like the 029 you will need to hire someone at your own time and expense. The 029 CAN NOT be moved by one person. I may have been a bit low on how much will need to be moved to get the 029 out the front door, lets say 400

CMOS for NMOS

I'm pondering upgrading the CPU of a Pacccomm Tiny-2 Mk2 radio packet controller from a 6Mhz Z80 processor and SIO to 10Mhz parts. My problem is that the parts already in it appear to be NMOS. The family is still being made by Zilog, but for 10Mhz parts, CMOS is all they have. Can I just
