Is there any way of making a 49-1 joystick function as a 8 way joystick?

Ok.
I've got all of the controls to work, but the up is very choppy.
The joystick has a little give to it and you have to gently move the joystick up to go up.
I'm happy with the result, but is there any way of making the up a little more solid?

You've prob got a dirty or flakey opto on the 49-way board. If you've got a multimeter/scope it's pretty easy to test them individually.
 
I have a multimeter but I don't have a scope.
Never really checked and verified optos before.
Any directions that you can give me by chance?
:)

Never sorted out with Shawn where they did everything he wanted, so I haven't listed any more for sale. I think he just had a bad opto on his 49-way and that was the issue -- I should have added more chips to the board to drive LEDs to test 49-ways -- maybe next time... heh.
