Are you the chap who just did the install video? I have had one report of an FX-880P taking a few tries to get the RP-33 Redux installed and working. Other than that all have worked. Not knowing the factory build tolerance on all applicable models it is a bit of a educated guess to get the size just right.

Is there no dead or ailing 71B near the Ozarks which could be lent to Jeff?

I would offer to but I don't have an HP 71 which is sort of important Smile

No video from me, I’m afraid! On the pair of machines I tried there was no real problem getting it to fit, so long as I kept the screws loose until all were going in. Resetting each machine made the memory visible.

I have them on eBay, Tindie and my website. A bit cheaper via my website. I just responded to your PM with details.
