    Very good of you to name it after me Rob, but you spelt it wrong, it's 'Jem'

    I have just made a mod to the ILDA Gem code so that it will now be possible (by way of a little bit of soldering) to change the output rate of the built in generator. The default will be 18k but I have now made 12k and 30k available by shorting some pins on the chip. Instructions will be provided with all orders.
    If anyone isnt confident about soldering a pin or two I will be happy to make any one of the speeds listed to be the prefered default.

    Hi Rob,

    Would this also mean that with some handy soldering and some switches one could make that a selectable choice ?
    So have one box, with the gem in it, some extra switches (maybe one ?) and have the choice before powering it on to select 12, 18 or 30k ?
    I didn't fail !
    I just found out 10,000 ways that didn't work.

    Ideally a Centre off DPDT switch (toggle or slide) would do the job
