Subject: master keyboard

Hi  Can anyone here confirm that the BBC Master keyboard is an ASCII coded
keyboard.
i.e. If an unshifted 'a' is pressed would a binary pattern of  01100001
appear on a rear edge connector. (or 1100001 if it is 7-bit ASCII ) - which
is 61H, 97D

I am asking because I would like to use it with a homebrew Z80 computer
which requires an ASCII keyboard. The computer is an Interak which is
working well with it's present keyboard but the Master one looks much
better.

I have already googled for this information with no success.

Thanks, Alan
