Hi All: Some, but not all, YaHoo list owners are receiving this message from YaHoo. Bill K. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Dear Yahoo! Groups Members, The Yahoo! Groups...
Hi All: I was wondering why I was getting a lot of junk mail lately. Telephone calls selling things, too. Thanks to a tip on another Yahoo list, now I know...
Hiya Folks, I'm in the process of building a new module for NTS 2002, but I'm not sure if I am going to have it completed in time for the show. It really all...
Like most people, I've had some trouble with credit in the past. For a long time I haven't been able to find a company that would give me a credit card at all....
Z bend and your Gothard modules have been a real inspiration to me in building my first z layout. Started 6 weeks ago with building, I am building some...
A quick programming update: Anyone who wants to watch a caffeine crazed maniac building a Z-Bend Track module point your browsers to http://www.z220.com and...
... I watched for a few minutes twice, once at 2pm (talking on the phone and working) and again at 4pm (working). It was more fun watching on a 56k modem than...
Bill, So *you* were the one! (grin) Well, it was a good day - got the roadbed down as well as about 3/4 of the track. Next session will be next week sometime....

Hello, This email message is a notification to let you know that a file has been uploaded to the Files area of the Z-Bend_Track group. File : / Click...
Bill K was kind enough to send me a bunch of slides with details on his groups Z-Bend Track wiring standards. I have posted them to the files section of the...
... I assume you are talking about "home" signals, searchlight signals, etc. Chad has a 2 light home signal on his 4 foot module. I ran into a closeout deal,...
... Bill would nine pins give enough connections? Or would it be better to use the silghtly more expensive parallel extention cables with 25 pins. Or better...
Manfred: Hahaha. You can tell which one of us is older -- ME. When the PC came out, 25 pins was the normal for serial cables, not 9 pins. Guess I live in a...
... Nah! Didn't most of those old 25 pin serials have only nine wires in them? I still have a few that are like that. The full 25 wire ones were always hard...
Manfred ... In the "old" days, a lot were 25 wires because they were used on the "big iron" IBM mainframe terminals, where were synchronous devices and used...
Actually, the lots of pins (25) had to do somewhat with modem signals, but more importantly, there were actually 2 separate communication lines, i.e. 2 serial...
... All of those transpositions of wire colors/connections from one end to the other makes me think that the parallel extention cables would be a better less...
Well, actually, there really are no transpositions on wires from one end to the other, most cables are "straight through", i.e. pin 1 on one end connects to...
... You are absolutely correct. You don't get as many wires in a parallel cable as you do in a serial cable (25 conductors). Plus, you only have a 25 pin ...
... That would mean that most of the cables that I have found as surplus are the null modem type. Why do you trust the serial more then the parallel? -- ...
... The ones I was talking about are used to connect between the computer and the cable that you are describing. They have all 25 cables and all connect to the...
yes, 25 pin straight through cables... usable for either serial, or to extend a parallel printer cable that has a DB-25 on one end, and the centronics type on...
Hi All: After the discussion the other day on how many wires are in a serial cable, I ordered a $4 five foot male-female DB25 cable from www.mpja.com just to...
Bill, Those 25 pin serial cables work well enough to connect Z-Bend Track modules in a pinch. How do I know? I used one last year at St. Louis. -Rob ... From:...
Zers, I have just joined this list, although I have been using Marklin Z mechanims for 30 years in Nn3. I use 1.5V lamps and bridge-rectifier constant...
