   i heard a little about that version of the z80 some years back, 
but never could get any information about whether it's available in
single piece quantities.  i have a trs 2 that i jacked up to 6 mhz,
if i could get the H chip i'd be able to go all the way to 10 mhz.
what i really want is a 12 to 16 mhz z80 code compatible processor.
does anyone know if such a beast exists??
