Asteroids Deluxe rev 2 questions

Hello,

     According to an old Dave Shepperd article that I ran accross, The Deluxe
rom revision 1 gives 18 seconds of shield time. An asteroid collision OR a
saucer shot costs 6 seconds of shield. A saucer collision costs approximatley
9 seconds and kills the saucer.
     Revision 2 works the same on shield time, except a saucer shot costs 3
seconds of shield time.
     Has anyone played revision 1 enough to see if you are losing 6 seconds
of shield per saucer shot taken? It seems to me that it was only using 3
seconds of shield per shot taken....
     Also, if you set dip #6 @ R5 to off (harder game play) is this the same
as rom revison 1?
      Needless to say, I've been playing ALOT of Deluxe lately. Anybody want
to tell of their revision 2 high scores? I just got a 88,750, and was all
proud of myself until my friend Billy played 3 games and got 54k, then 76k,
then 96,500....
     I've got rocks in my head....

MK
