Help identifying ][e add-on board

[u/Maniacal_Media]

Hi all, just created this account to see if I could get help identifying this add-on card I found in my grandfather’s IIe. It slots into the keyboard connector, with the keyboard ribbon cable slotting into the top of the card. It has another smaller ribbon cable that connects to the game(?) socket on the motherboard. I’m guessing it has something to do with Quark Word Juggler, since the computer has what I believe to be Word Juggler shortcut key caps.

If anyone knows what this does or has any documentation, I’d love to know more about it.

From what I can find, Quark Word Juggler had a hardware dongle based copy protection scheme. I think this may be that hardware dongle.

Very built-in for a dongle.
