Yeah, this one is amber too, but the keyboard is going bad. I have to stand on some of the keys to make them work. Perhaps since you used them before, you know of a way to clean them? Or maybe there's a source for a replacement keyboard? Otherwise, it's in near mint condition and works great. I just put back on the shelf, as I got Hyperterminal setup and working on a PC with the new S-100 machine. Now it all takes less space and I have room for other things on the bench as I need them.
I also have a Heathkit H-19A terminal. I got it a few years back for $20. The guy said it didn't work. The only thing I found wrong with it was the two bottom plastic bosses that mount the CRT to the front had broken and the tube was swinging from the top two bosses with a 1/2" gap between the bottom of the tube and the front. I repaired that by drilling through the bosses and the front and then used machine screws to put it back together. Now I have two screw heads looking at me on the front, but that's no bother. The terminal works perfect, and I have the manual too in case it needs repair in the future.. Bob -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of G.

Really liked that HP terminal, and should have grabbed one of them when they were upgrading 15 years ago. greg -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "N8VEM-S100" group.
