Once we get a new iPod or repair the existing one
for the Apple I replica it will be twelve!
Good work on the Apple II's. Either you Tony or Jeff Brace will know: the iPod carries programs stored as audio files which the Apple I reads like an audio cassette. Do you happen to know the analog sampling frequency and sample bit-size for those files? I'm in the world of COSMAC cassettes now, and digitized WAV files. So I'd like to know plausible parameters for cassette-based data files read by actual hardware. Herb "8-track" Johnson -- Herbert R.

I used 44.1k monaural when I did the tapes for my Tandy Model 102 cassettes and they worked just fine. Get Outlook for iOS On Sun, Mar 11, 2018 at 6:38 PM -0400, "Herb Johnson via vcf-midatlantic" <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Corey Cohen had put the files on the mini iPod, so I don't know. I sure that some others here can chime in.
I promised some rack pictures. www.vcfed.org/evan/rack1.jpg (Adam working) www.vcfed.org/evan/rack2.jpg (up close) www.vcfed.org/evan/rack3.jpg (mesh door closed) Very cool. :) We will instruct docents to keep the monitor turned off when our museum is closed (no point in wasting energy for no eyeballs) and to turn it on when we're open so visitors can see that the rack is really working. Of course the server is 24/7. It's much quieter than I expected -- a pleasant surprise. Soft hum like a modern PC. Perhaps one of these days we'll replace the yellow network cables with black ones. I really like the idea of having almost all of the components blacked out except for the lights. Just feel like it looks cool.
