Well - Thanks Slogger !!!
Although i cant find a schematic for the rombox- the Acorn one is well documented. trying to compare the two and noticed that there doesnt appear to be any connection to pin19 (ACK) on the slogger like there is on the Acorn one.
however the slogger does a trace on pin21 - which is N/C on the Acorn and on the Schematic.
Surely they cant have messed up an important signal like the Acknowledge pin could they?
Swapped the pin 19 wire onto pin21 and ... yup - it works !
Moral of the story : don't take anything for granted
!
This is the Slogger rombox.... and the Acorn plus 1 for comparison hopefully this may help anyone else in the future too
