Re: What else might be connected on the ZX81 alongside the ZXPand+ ?
I only have a ZXpand not a plus but mine works fine with both my Memotech Keyboard and ChromaSCART plugged in. Very useful for testing the occasional zeddy that happens along.
ZX80
ZX81 iss 1 (bugged ROM, kludge fix, normal, rebuilt)
TS 1000 iss 3, ZXPand AY and +, ZX8-CCB, ZX-KDLX & ChromaSCART
Tatung 81 + Wespi
TS 1500 & 2000
Spectrum 16k (iss 1 s/n 862)
Spectrum 48ks plus a DIVMMC future and SPECTRA

Yeah, I have the regular ZXPand too (not a ZXPand+).
And it just seems like it won't move the RAM out of the 8K to 16K area.
Even after I do CONFIG "M=H" and verify with CONFIG "M" if I poke the 8K to 16K region it remembers the value, but if I poke the 40K to 48K region it doesn't. And after I power-off if I do a CONFIG "M" the RAM is back to 8K to 40K. Strange....
The ZXPand seems to work fine otherwise, and my board works fine when I write to it, but I cannot read from it because the ZXPand memory is in the same region (8K to 16K).

Maybe try to write to SirMorris on SellMyRetro. I'm not sure if he follows all threads in this forum.
Re: What else might be connected on the ZX81 alongside the ZXPand+ ?
I can confirm, as Martin recommends, that Sir Morris is best contacted through Sell My Retro.
Re: What else might be connected on the ZX81 alongside the ZXPand+ ?
Okay, thanks. I will try to contact him.

I have sent a message to SirMorris on sellmyreto on 8/22 but I haven't heard anything back yet.
Does anyone know if there is another way to try to contact him ?
Thanks,
Bean

I believe he's on vacation in the USA, not very active at all electronically.
