Where you @ shipping wise? I have a spare keyboard for a brown c64. I'm looking for a spare 6581 myself. One of mine are bad. thanks Barry

Yeah it ended up being a cut track, although visually I can't see any cut traces, but after doing a continuity test, that's what it was! Thanks Barry

Yeah whats weird is if I short them they light up, so it's not bad LEDs, I'm just wondering what else would be routing power to them.

So this is weird, my sammichSID works fine, minus the fact that one of my SIDS are bad, but as far as mono is concerned it works like a charm, except for 2 LEDs. Looking at the unit the left side LEDs lowest octave,# 2 and 3 won't light up. Took it apart, soldered the LEDs again, checked their polarity, and nothing. They don't flicker during startup, they don't light up when I hit that octave, nothing, any suggestions?

So after having completed my sammichSID, I come to discover that one of my 6581's are bad, but I do have lying around an 8580, is it possible to have two different SIDS in one unit, as long as I have the appropriate filter caps changed? I feel as if this may be frowned upon but just figured I'd check. Thanks Barry
