When shopping on Amazon...

Friendly reminder: please set your Amazon bookmarks to /http://smile.amazon.com/ch/47-4133714 <https://smile.amazon.com/gp/f.html?C=3FIV09C29RIRQ&K=ONBFISUFZZPK&M=urn:rtn…> /... if you use that link instead of the main Amazon.com then VCF gets a tiny little portion of the purchase. For example, we made $25 in the January 1 - March 31 quarter. Hey that's something! It would cover lunch for one of our museum work days.

forwarding a posting: TDL Apple monitor now online
by Jeffrey Jonas 24 May '18

24 May '18

from comp.os.cpm Subject: Re: Technical Design Labs / Xitan Software and Hardware From: Udo Munk <udo.munk(a)freenet.de> I've typed in the TDL Apple monitor predating Zapple from the manual in Intel syntax, so that it assembles with Intel MACRO 80 or the DRI 8080 assemblers. Manual and sources are here: http://www.autometer.de/unix4fun/z80pack/ftp/altair/ The monitor assumes the monitor ROM at F000-F7FF followed by RAM @ F800. z80pack 1.37-dev @ github includes the memory configuration for that as compile-time option in sim.h. Very good system monitor for 8080 systems, have fun with it, Udo

This is the first VCF I could attend for more than my presentation (a few years ago). I was volunteering with IXR and I did get to wonder for a few minutes on Saturday (totally missed Friday - Rats). I barely made it past Hall 1 to visit Hall 2. Got to talk to a lot of interesting folks. Spent a lot of time with Jeremie and Thierry (European computers). I also talked to Ralph Dodd (Modified Atari 800xl - Ralph, you were correct it was the POKEY). In Hall 2 I had to make it quick as I had left Dan to the Learning to solder alone and I was supposed to be helping. So it was 1802, Slide Rules, APX (Atari Program eXchange), the Atari ST. I never made it to the Consignment area or the Apollo exhibit (dang). Glitch, how many kits did you have left at the end of Saturday? Saw Herb and Bob in the vendor area spent some time there before things got started. And I wonder if there was any 6809 stuff in the consignment area. Did anyone see an Tandy CoCos at VCF or any other 6809 exhibits? Bob had his SWTPC stuff in the vendor area. Bob I'll send you a separate order for the SWTPC stuff. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry(a)linuxha.com http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies

DSI Paper tape reader service manual/schematic needed
by Jeff Galinat 23 May '18

23 May '18

Hi everyone, I purchased a DSI NC2400 paper tape reader/punch and while the punch section works perfectly the reader has a problem. Basically, the reader just won't start. It won't respond to a DC1 in remote mode and won't start to read & copy a tape in local mode. When you press the read button, the read LED lights for less than a second & goes out and the read head never moves tape. I will revisit troubleshooting it next week but I figured I would see if anyone had a service manual or schematic for it. I would gladly pay for any scanning/copying costs Thanks, Jeff

There are some manuals onBitsavers that cover setup. Does not seem to have service information. http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/dsi/ I just noticed that my reply came through without my comment Trying again Duane On 5/23/2018 12:13 PM, Jeff Galinat via vcf-midatlantic wrote: > Hi everyone, > I purchased a DSI NC2400 paper tape reader/punch and while the punch > section works perfectly the reader has a problem.
