look at this thread
LOTS of helpful info on using little junie
that's what I love about his form
suggestion - build some adapter plugs. I think they are in same thread.
if not I can post pcboard layout w/ part numbers for the ones I built.
they work great

Eh Ghostman just do what I did, threaten to bring all your electronics into the lounge room and set a bench up. Then just say well you won't let me up the shed so the shed can come down into the house. It worked for me mate so try it out.

Cheers Bryan

pc boards 4 icd and con2

pretty sure its con2 = 8 pin plug on Junebug for connecting to off board (Junebug) stuff. this way you can connect say a circuit and test using the buttons etc on the Junebug.
pc boards just made it simpler.
Purchased plugs etc from Digi-Key.I built 2 sets.
You need to use the ribbon cable from the Junebug or get some from an old computer (thats what I did.keep the lengths 6" or less.
The pc boards are very simple. If you want the expresspcb file then just ask
