Re: What do you do with your MTX?

I have a couple of "Disaster Radio" style Lora text devices here which use UK Lora channel on 868KHz. I am wondering if MTXs can utilise Lora comms to speak to each other or indeed any other connected Lora devices. At the moment I am just trying to get my head around how this might work. S...

Re: Memofest 2023, Where and When?

It might be too late for this year, but my suggestion would be for each of us to book a hotel room in the same hotel, then bring along our "kit". We could then either book a day's conference room to meet up in, or all pile in to one room or a nearby village hall (cheaper) for the event its...

Re: Just found this/these...

There used to be a development and demo version which had a drive attached via ribbon cable, so that the CP/M system could be accessed/used. I would think there would be somewhere on the mobo where a cable could be soldered/socketed.

Just found this/these...

Re: MemoFix 2022

Excellent news.

I guess some USB controllers are not as compatible as others!

Re: MemoFix 2022

I wonder if there is a comms speed issue going on here? Is the baud rating adjustable in any way to read/write to/from the Gotek?
