Hi John,

The NTE-988 is speced at 6.2V rather than 6.0V like the ZR78L06.

This will mean running the 16C77 at 6.2V which is slightly higher than it's
spec limit of 6.0.
It might work or it might be spooky.  It probably won't hurt the hardware if
you want to try it temporarily, but there might possibly be a software
problem.
