Yup, it is the quad pokey board. ALso, there was a single chip version of
the board. You could basically see the four pokey IC's encased in black
stuff (these were used in later Atari games). If you can track one of those
down, you're life will be a lot easier (I think I got one from Kurt Mahan
WAY back when)

I don't think I've ever seen schematics. I'm willing to loan one of mine
out if you want to manually trace the connections.
