Boot from Older ROM

From a discussion on the SEBHC google group Glenn instructs on how to boot an older ROM.

  
You must have an early ROM. It was only later that Heath added single key boot (the early ROMs were developed before the H17 existed).
To boot you must set the Program Counter register manually to 030.000 and then hit GO, so:
 
REG (decimal points light up...)
PC (the “F” key, same as PC)
ALTER (the “D” key; decimal points flash)
0 3 0 0 0 0
ALTER (decimals stop flashing...)
GO (the “4” key)
