Very nice! I pretty much only collect VGA compatible graphics cards, and some historic EGA products, but I love seeing earlier products.

So you need to solder a cable directly on the board?

Back in times you must have decent solder skill,
and large part of Dazzlers were sold as DIY kits anyway.

I think this board is factory assembled, but never soldered with BNC cable.

End user need solder it by self.

The board can attach BNC cable without directly soldering it, just use few tricks to work around.

The price of kits have huge advantage over factory assembled one.
