RP1 on the schematics Rev1.4BW and BOM don't match.
Schematics show 4k7 and BOM shows 10k

P.S. the lowering of these resistors to 4K7 may have had something to do with the error in the wires to the keyboard, specifically the fact that erroneously the "A8" keyboard line was connected not to A8, but to A8', which is fixed in revision 1,6

This is still an important change, with 4K7 pullups there were reports that pressing two keys simultaneously the ZX-81+38 could crash. So use 10K pullups!

Got your zx81/80 board going tonight. Used 12mhz crystal though it wouldn't start consistently. Also used ZX80 rom. Couldn't get ZX81 rom to work... not sure why though it may be due to the lower crystal. Also couldn't get it to load from WAV files from phone on first try. Here's some pictures to show my progress.

if the 13MHz crystal doesn't work properly you might have used a 74HC14, that is incorrect as a 74HC14 uses schmitt trigger inputs that cannot be driven (well) with a crystal, so please replace the IC with a 74HC04, or better yet with a 74HCU04, and use the correct crystal the 13.000MHz one, or all (Video) timings will deviate.

Have fun with your ZX81+38.
