I took a dead Atari pinball board and wired it so I could test the
Superman and Hercules boards on my PBS-1. Works fine, and no, still have
not found any cards for the sucker.

I have made a few templates for the PBS-1 that I will scan and post so
folks can make their own cards - just have to get around to doing that!

I too have a few of the KK sig boxes - they probably work, but I find I
use the HP signature voltmeter instead - or the Fluke 9010 - just
because they are set up on the bench (or trolley).

Did you get a manual for the Superman test fixture?

Manuals for most of the above are available on either the TTL ftp site
or Al Kossow's bitsavers site.
