Hi Don

Good idea ... after starting on my 240v remote switch using a real breadboard ( not the PCB type )... I spent a lot of time striping and tinning the ends of the individual wires on the ribbon cable to plug into the breadboard. I realise I could have just used the wires I needed but I did all of them so I could experiment more later.

I thought the wires for Pin 1 to 20 would just come out in order but instead they ended up crossing over one another.

Really need a means of getting these pins out in some order. May I suggest a PCB with the 26pin male PCB connector on one side and a strip of molex pins on the other side which plugs into a real breadboard or a PCB breadboard as well.

cheers
Keith
