BTW, the updated SHOW PORT command is the cause of the updated version to be called 2CCCC and not 1CCCC, since it is was a functional change, quite the same as the 28C 1BB/1CC versions updated to the 28S 2BB version. All other changes in the HP-71B 2CCCC are bug fixes (plus one new bug later fixed in 2CDCC).
