(It's the one that sort of resembles an Apple joystick, except it has only 1 button.) I'm planning on using it and 4 spare buttons to build another controller for my Vectrex game console (as spare consoles are unavailable nowadays). So, 2 requests follow... 1) Can anyone provide me a schematic for the RS CoCo "Deluxe Joystick"? Or, failing that, can anyone tell me what size the pots are in the thing? 2) Has anyone else out there ever BUILT a second controller console for their Vectrex? If you have, plans or hints would be VERY helpful. Thanks greatly for this much-needed aid. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: G. T.
