|  Re: PCB for SID card Solder
If someone creates a PCB design (and you send it to a manufacturer) will you able to program the GAL for it? (I mean do you have the equipment for that?)
I wouldn't recommend creating a Solder SIDCard in 2020. The NST one BSZ created is a much better choice. It is currently under redesign in order to get rid of obsolete parts and to allow fitting it into a case. Those cards can be bought in batches and there is a topic here where interests can be registered.
We used to compare Chronos' Solder SIDCard and my NST one and mine has a much clearer sound and it also has some additional cool features such as using C64 clock for sound and original C64 SID address to play SID music in some older converted games.
But this is just my opinion. You decide. (But noone made a clone in the past 20-25 years so I wouldn't bet high stakes that you'll find someone for the job)
