Now, however, I have been going for 3 hours without a crash, so here's my fix. Build the terminator, but use 3.3 k pull-downs instead of 1k's for /as, /lds, and /uds. These signals looked a little low on the scope. Build a little piggy back board to split u9 into two chips, one for each gate. This is easy to do using 3 sockets. One is connected to pins 1-6 and the other to 8-13, and both are connected to 7 and 14. For me I got the thing to work using an S part for U8, and ALS part for the first gate in U9, and a 7474 for the second half. This works like a charm. I hope this helps. -Vince Lee
