Subject: [alt-beam] Phototrophic Walker


Hi again, i sent out a mail about this earlier, but nobody replied, so i
decided to send another. I've got a schematic of a 'hypothetical' phototropic
bicore on my website, could somebody tell me if at all correct. I'd like to
use a bicore setup if at all possible, cause all i have is the 74HCT240 chip!
ThAnKs!
