zapsystems Signetics 3000kt8080sk

discusion on ccmp discord has led to mention of this being a cdn made system and a referance to an artical in Balita Feb 1-15 1979 a philipino paper of some sort? not sure much els but ive uncoverd a forgoten cdn computer of some sort
 
blurry photo doesn't show text on chips. But the Signetics populated board is Multibus, no doubt. The Zaptronics adapter board may well be Multibus to S-100. Clearly from the wirewrap wires the adaptation needed help. If the Signetics chjps are 3000 series, they are bit-slice technology, look that up. Maybe a demonstrator board, maybe someone needed to build a fast processor on-the-board for some purpose. Forensics is to dump the bipolar PROMs and see what the codes say, a bit of work to do that. With four boards it's worth some fuss. - regards
