+=== Clock Signals ===
 The 14MHz oscillator which was still fitted to the board on receiving it is working; the clock is present on the output pin from the can as well as on ISA socket pin B30 (//OSC//):

 There is an 8MHz clock present on ISA socket pin B20 (//CLK//):

+Processor pin 31 (//CLK//) has a 9.996MHz clock:

+//This doesn't seem correct//. The processor is a 20MHz unit, and is being driven, as is normal on a 286, by a standard DIL can oscillator of 2x the processor frequency (i.e. 40MHz). The definition for pin 31 is that it //"is divided by 2 internally within the processor to generate the processor clock"// (from the {{ :blog:286:amd_80286_datasheet_june_1989_.pdf|AMD 80286 datasheet}})... that would mean the processor is only at 5MHz. Unless I misunderstand the datasheet, something is drastically wrong here.
