There was talk on this forum about reproducing these a few years ago but it died out due to the production difficulties concerned. It should be easy really, just designing the PCB, getting a box made and getting the 23 way switches which are the main costs!

The design dudes at CML are seriously considering making a channel test jig...... the decision is a balancing act of benefit versus cost.... yes, it's a useful thing to have, but is it worth the effort to do PCB(s) and put in a lot of effort to make a one-off for our workshop? We currently do module test in a 2-bucket mini-console. As a test-method, the mini-console works well, but is not as convenient as a jig on a bench.

If there was some real interest that would make the effort worthwhile, we could move this from an interest / nice-to-have project to a real project.

Comments will be appreciated.

I guess it's worth doing a feeler and see how many people would be really interested in this.

If the price is right, count me in! ;)

That's one of those tools that you'll always need if you have an SSL! :)
