Thanks, Ralph! That is good news.

There are actually *two* 10pin jumper fields on the board.
The Hauppauge and the original Technotrend manual both refer
to them as "J2" and "J8" and describe them as "Reserved for
future enhancements".

Two questions:

Which one is the one described above? J2 or J8?
J2 is at the center of the board, J8 is at the upper right
corner above the CI connector.

What is the pinout of the other connector?


Thanks again,

Carsten.
