Where was it coming from? Just white-noise gibberish because I didn't have a signal source connected?. Sorry, I assumed that you were hearing dahs & dits on your monitor when pressing keys for transmit mode rather than white noise. Most RTTY interfaces worked in this manner, in part to help nov...

I have several plans for RTTY interfaces from old magazines. Many of the early adopters of computers were amateur radio operators as well and built t...

Try Craig Bruce's word processor - Zed for C128.

http://www.csbruce.com/~csbruce/cbm/zed/

It will use 64kb VDC memory.

Crt Controller Handbook

Does anyone have a copy of - Crt Controller Handbook by Gerry Kane?

I'm looking for some detailed info on 6545 (yes, I already have datasheets and Synerk Application note).

I'm looking to use the 6545 for video display as part of my 6502SBC project.

Thanks!

I don't know too many Vic-20 fans who would be willing to part with $2K for their hobby.

So far noone with a PET/CBM of either model? Of course PCs only would count if they were made by or under the Commodore brand. Actually one of the C64/Amiga mags I have once reviewed the latest fan-less PC-1 (or PC-10 ?) which was an odd article to understand if you didn't know about PC and MS-DOS ...

I have:

10 -- Vic-20
3 -- C64 (brown box)
1 -- C64 (flat style)
4 -- C128
4 -- 1571
3 -- 1541


I can count over 50 computers + over 25 monitors in my basement / computer room. It is getting more difficult to find space for new stuff.

Do I have a collecting problem???
