Stupid BUB hack: RX/TX LED

Stupid BUB hack: RX/TX LED
The BUB board only comes with one LED. The one I got wouldn't show both RX and TX activity, so I just bridged pins 22 and 23 to have the single LED react to both paths. The default setup is activity indicator for RX on 22 and TX on 23.

A much smarter way would have been to use FT_PROG and just change the chip's EEPROM configuration, which allows RX/TX activity indication on a single pin. My lame excuse for using my soldering iron is that the software tool doesn't run on linux. I have XP in a VM, but soldering is more fun anyway.
