No just a stylized "dsc". I'll try and get a photo of it tomorrow and
post it. Maybe somebody will recognize it. There are no other names on it
anywhere including the EPROM labels, just some more numbers.
I looked at Claus Sch?nleber's 900 Page and in one photo you can see
part of the main circuit board. It doesn't look anything like the board
that I have.
