====== Phil Gaskell RTC ======
This was a small home-made Board which fitted underneath one of the QL's ROM chips (I think) in order to provide a real-time battery backed clock (the original QL lost its time when you turned the power off).


As people moved to the [[qlwiki:Gold Card]]] and [[qlwiki:Super Gold Card]] this was no longer needed.   The [[qlwiki:Minerva]] operating system could also come complete with a battery-backed real-time clock
