 So maybe that is something for the next iteration…
+From Adam Dewis: “It turns out 9128/9118s and such designed with 4-Bit DRAM have bidirectional data pins instead of the multiplexed address/data out and data-in bus on the 9918 which (necessitated by 1-bit DRAMs having separate data in and out pins). After going cross eyed at the schematics for a while I noticed U9 latches data out onto the SRAMs bidir data bus. As the 9128 is also bidir this latch isn't needed if you substitute a TMS9118/9128 chip. I thought I would pass this along as it is not mentioned on the wiki, it took me a fair amount of digging to locate this information, and other than some characters being repeated in text mode these the TMS9128 appears to be an acceptable substitute for the TMS9918.”
 A 2Mhz crystal is specified for the sound chip clock but on board dividers can be configured to use a higher frequency crystal. Also common serial and colour burst frequency crystals can be used depending on your need for frequency accuracy and compatibility.

 ==== Sound Programs ====
-The AY-3-8910 is a widely supported sound chip and there is a large library of sound files that can be played on this board. Included in ROMWBW is a sound file player called TUNE which can play Protracker 2/3 and .MYM format PSG files. A collection of demonstration files is also included.
