Are there any additional signals around the ROM socket - as I've spotted 3 rows of pads, but only 2 are required for the original ROM socket? ;-) Two rows have parallel connection, because of different connectors have 2.54 or 5.08 mm between rows. Modern connectors - 5.08mm, but old QL connector - ...
