Ah, there it is in the Fluke/PDFs directory: 8051Pod-40pinclip.PDF. that
is a test clip, sometimes referred to as a GLOMPER clip. I have a bunch
of them at the shop (no spare 40 pins) and they are available -
somewhere. There are two styles, one that has smooth pins that you can
slide the ribbon cable connector onto, and others that have a bump on the
top to keep test leads from sliding off. 
I think they were made by CGI or someone like that... 
While researching this I noticed that Google Groups now goes back to (at
least) 1984!

Wow!

A while ago you asked about this, is it a socket you need or the
40 pin dip header? I've not seen a socket either...but I guess you could
always solder a socket to a header. 
Where is the pdf file located?

anyone source the part that crimps to the ribbon cable & provides a
40 pin dip socket?  I could use some of those! 
Didn't see it in DigiKey, Mouser or
Allied. 
(40pincclip.pdf has a sketch of the
part)

<dd>I think you could make something from Digikey's cables and clips. I
have a CPU clip I have experimented with (on a CAT Box), but not on the
System 80 MPUs with a 6502 Fluke pod. I don't know why, just never
did...however you do need to lift the two jumpers to disable the CPU
(that's what I did with the CAT Box - oh, I still have one CB for sale if
anyone is interested)...it might work, should not harm the CPU...perhaps
the next MPU I pull out I'll test this on and let you folks know the
results, later this week...

<dd>Are the clip adapters for the 9000 series
pods still around? If I remember correctly, Gottlieb soldered in the CPUs
in the sys80 CPU boards. I'm going to start working on some in the next
few weeks. Just wondering how hard they are to find and if people have
used them with any success. I suppose I could desolder the CPU, but if
it's working, I'd rather not.
