Back in the day, there was an Amsat project to make a ham oriented S100 bus board. I think it had a RTTY interface, and some other things. Does anyone recall more details? 73, Doug
There are numerous updates in the old AMSAT Newsletters with details about it, but I think this Byte article probably sums up the project best.

Thanks. That's actually far more than I recall. I was doing LSI-11 stuff at the time, and wasn't impressed by the S100 bus. 73, doug
