Unknown board...

   Hello all...

   As I was going through a part of my PCB collection, I came across an
unknown board (quite dirty, and a bit damaged) that I would like to
identify and (try to) repair.

   It has no writing on it other than component names/types and the
text: "EAGLE 6101-A PROGRAM JAPAN MADE IN KOREA" on the corner of the
board.

   The board has a 18/36 pin card-edge connector on it, 2 8-switch DIP
switch packages, and has a daughtercard that plugs into the board at a
40-pin socket connector (I think it hosts the CPU).

   The daughtercard has an additional 10/20 pin card-edge connector on
it as well as another 8-switch DIP switch package, and a black plastic
package with no markings on it that looks like it could hold 2 Z-80s
stacked on top of one another. Some hacking has been done on the main
PCB underneath where the daughtercard connects (visible in the photo),
as well as a few routes/jumps made on the underside.

   There is a picture of it at http://www.jrtwine.com/jtwine/unkpcb1.png
(73KB), and another picture of the board with the daughtercard centered
over it (not the normal position of the daughtercard!) at
http://www.jrtwine.com/jtwine/unkpcb2.png (76KB). The board has not
been cleaned yet, and I cannot easily remove the two large white labels
(yet). There is no visible writing on the white labels, and the
stickers on the ROMs read "G-4", "G-5", "G-6", "G-7", "G-8", "G-11",
"G-12", and "G-13".

   I have found a few pinouts for "Eagle" in the 'Net, but none with an
18/36 pin connector AND the daughtercard connector. Any thoughts will
be helpful...

   Peace!
