    Are you still offering yours? how much should be to mail one in an envelop to Wash, DC area?

    Yep, shouldn't be more than $2 in a letter envelope with extra postage with the weight.

    Send me your address...

     

    Edit, same for you -DOC-

    Hmmmm, package size is 20cmx20cmx25cm - but what is the actual cable length?

    Since I only have 800XL computers I need a cable that is long enough from the (upwards oriented) Cartport to the SIOport... on the XE the SIO and Cart ports are next to each other, not so on the XL's (not to mention the 400/800/1200XL)...

     

    Going by this pic, they should be long enough for my needs.

    While looking over the PIA socket I discovered a blob of solder under the socket.

    That was the exact reason I suggested checking for shorts between adjacent pins on each socket.  Had 2 of those on my XEL build, had to do some upside-down solder extraction to fix those...

    Tested continuity from the pins on pokey chip to pins on TKII chip. Everything looks good. Checked continuity from TKII to keyboard jack on IO board and also good. Removed chips and tested RN4. Also good. All RN's look to be in the correct orientation. Swapped U1MB, no difference. Noticed L1 seemed to have a chip out of it, so removed from board(assuming this is PAL only?). No change. Tried Star Raiders, black screen no sound, no action. As was noticed above, the characters aren't random when typing, they're control/atascII characters. Like the control key is being pushed. Type the same letter 5x and sometimes it will be the control character, sometimes the alpha. Also noticed that when left on a couple of minutes, the power LED will change from yellow to straight red.

    Have you removed all chips and checked for shorts from adjacent pins on each IC Socket?

    (1-2, 2-3, 3-4, etc...)

    AtariGeezer is also working in another project which is more centered in the Modem part, like a 850 compatible solution, AFAIK. 

    Not just enhanced 850 and Hayes Modem support, but it also includes TNFS Clients support and soon a built-in TNFS Server.

    Also in the works is the IRC Chat Client,  designing a DLI for multiple windows is currently on the drawing board.

     

    For the TNFS Server, I'm also making a Win32 version with a GUI :)  The main core will also be used on the ESP-32...

     

    Plus more features in the coming months,  any ideas???

    Maybe S.A.M too, we'll see...

    There is also a 3rd party interface for the Supra Drive,  saw it on ebay 2 years ago for $25, but didn't pull the trigger. Doh!

    It has a black case.  Have a pic of it on my XP PC, but need to replace the PS again first before I can post it...

    I'll poke around, but that kind of thing isn't generally available. Mine is black.

    That's ok, I have a black one also.  Would you have a spare 1200XL LED Cable (the one from the motherboard to Keyboard / top case) ?
