Re: Pac repair using a chip comparitor

<x-flowed>
Mark's devices will die also if plugged in backwards...takes about an hour
or more to replace the IC's, same as the original...perhaps we could ask
both Mark and Clay to put in a 1N4005 diode across the Vcc and Ground so IT
shorts out if installed backwards and not the board...sort of a Silicon
Suicide device...
