The teletype in the museum was converted to rs232. I don't know if it was also upgraded to a baud faster than 110 8/n/2. It should be possible to punch a...

... Its still 110. It was reported that the punch was jamming so if someone wants to use is for a demo we should check it out at the next work day. I think its...
Can we set it to 8,n,1 or it is fixed at two stop bits. No big deal, we can simply put something inbetween to "echo" the data between the two removing the...
Some of the embedded FPGA work I've done really taught the value of this. Whenever possible I prefer to use the on chip block ram and not go external for cost...
The Z80 is claimed to be compatible with the 8080 but anyone who has tried to run MITS Basic on it knows that isn't true. The reason is that the Z-80...

Hi all, I see that the MARCH website is listing the VCF East 9.0 dates as May 18 & 19. I just noticed that according to the ARRL website that OMARC is holding...
Only VCF is on the InfoAge.org calendar. Yes it could be a problem, but let’s see what is going on. Worst case these are complementary events. stand by......
I think that it will be great to have both events.. The cross pollination from us and the HAM guys will be good as it will open up our interests to a wider...
