So the workshop was great for all of us! Lots done, lots of fun! :) 16 showed up Saturday, 8 Sunday. 5 of us worked on Commodore 1541 drives Saturday. Others worked on S100, PDP-8, Terminals, etc. The five working on the 1541s mostly sorted through The Federation's 1541 drives and tested which were good, medium or bad. Some were fixable with just using a q-tip and alcohol to the drive head. Some attempts at re-seating chips and voltage testing was done, but only for a small percentage of the drives. Further repair and diagnostic wasn't possible due to running out of time. I worked on my own personal 1541 drives myself was only able to tell which were working or not without opening up, repairing or running diagnostics. I spent a lot of time helping with The Federation drives and other Federation business (running the workshop etc.) and had little time for my own stuff. I did learn from Bill Degnan basic troubleshooting for 1541 drives. I hope to work on them and apply what I learned next month and be able to actually guarantee most of them 100% working. We had a special visit on Sunday from Rob Clarke. He is a Commodore guru who lives in Switzerland. He was in the Philadelphia area for some other event and hung out with us on Sunday. Since I lost all my Commodore help with the 1541 drives (they went home Saturday night), I decided to get Computer Eyes up and running. After about 3 hours I was able to get it to work! I captured a black and white image of myself and later a group photo. I even printed them out. Can others tell what they worked on and their progress? Our next Workshop is Feb. 27/28. I hope to see many of you there!
