excellent idea; solder a sinle in-line row of sockects into the ARMmite
where I/P AND o/p are needed, this gets rid of the need to
solder/unsolder connections to the board when you change project etc and
saves the board from damage (if are as skilled a solderer as me)

Wow! Someone actually read my email. I thought it had gone into the
bit bucket somewhere.
Thanks for the compliment.
Jim.

Re: Project examples
I agree with Michael about the LogicScope .
Is it just a software demo of an output that you would get if you set everything
up (including programming the ARMmite) ? Or is it supposed to be a complete
example of an application ? How do you get TCL applications to work ?

Yes, Bruce is very good. I appreciate his work. I liked that idea
too. I just haven't gotten around to ordering one yet. I was pleased
with the way the header worked out. I figured the plated through hole
would last about 2 solder/desolder cycles. That's probably OK if you
are using the board for a certain purpose, but I'm just trying different
things so I wanted to be able to easily swap things around. If anyone
is interested, I got the header from Adafruit Industries. I got a set
for $2. They're actually designed for use with an Arduino, but they
work fine on this board. I hope I'm not barred from this group for
using that name.
Adafruit also has a couple of 9V battery holders/clips with a 2.1 mm
plug that fits the armExpress board nicely, if you want to run from
battery power. I also got the breadboard shown in the picture from the
same place. While I'm at it, the wires I used are from SparkFun. They
are very handy for quick breadboarding.
Thanks,
Jim.

Correction. I purchased the wires from Adafruit also.
