I just glanced thru your post of keep alive and couldn't find exactly what was your modified version used for ps3.
I'd be interested if it could help my engines thru my largest Atlas switches with dead frogs. They are starting to give me issues. I think some stock engines are losing their pick ups on certain points.

Hey Joe, nah you didn't miss anything. Just got busy at work here and got sidetracked.

It's pretty simple, as it turns out. I added a step down converter to my O sized keepalive, since there was no readily accessible 5V supply on the PS3 board, and then just tied the keepalive into the output side of the giant bridge rectifier. So it makes for an easy, minimally invasive two wire install.

I'll post an update in that thread when I get a chance.
