The following does the same for a dummy 16K cartridge. A friend of
mine gave me this home made cart. Since I'm not an IEEE member,
I just can describe it:
ROM ROM PROCESSOR

| double-switch LED () |

+--------------------------------------------+
Codes for the resistence: orange/orange/purple/gold (? ohm)
I'm not sure about the number of the pins in the LS, because I can't
remember if the chip is in the front or the back of the card.
If I'm wrong, I'll correct it...
The names in the cartridge port are from "Mapping the Atari".
Bye... ++V
