I originally bought some cabling to do serial transfers to an Amiga, and wound up dedicating this setup to a permanent TPDD emulation setup at my desk. Just to record it for posterity, here are the products I use daily: StarTech.com USB to Serial RS232 Adapter - DB9 Serial DCE Adapter Cable with

Re: [M100] Why not transfer with Telcom?

In fact sending and receiving plain text is a common use case. In particular it's important for bootstrapping a TPDD client. That and the existence of tsdos ROM and REX is why I've never added a bootstrap injector to LaddieAlpha. Plain text is not related to FTP though. Ftp is a file transfer

I can use Telcom and connect to BBS's. When on a session you have the options to (I forget the exact terminology on the screen) UPLOAD, DOWNLOAD. So if I can upload and download files, why can't I build my own FTP SERVER? or whatever server, put the program files on it and download them to the

Steve, I found the mComm 2.5. It's for Windows. I see It's install program is called Setup250.exe! Ok, I have a Windows computer I can use. But maybe the linux one will work as well. Any additional instructions for getting the ModelT to connect to the computer running mcomm? Curtis Vaughan

For the record, I did end up successfully upgrading a 2M REXCPM to 4M using the RMLV3216AGSA linked below. The only special note other than "how to desoldering alloy" and "how to drag solder" was that the epoxy holding the copper on the pcb is weak. Be exceedingly gentle wicking up the

Re: [M100] printer port

I can already confirm that this works. This is exactly how I did it back when I actually had time to sell things through Club100 (prior to having kids that is). I manufactured and sold probably 2 dozen new printer cables by doing this very same proceedure. I would purchase 25 foot rolls of

Re: [M100] printer port

Hi, I think I actually did try that once and it did work but it was ages ago when I had a printer with a parallel port. Wait, the HP LJ IV still has one it still works(30 year-old printer.) If I can find one of those parallel port cables floating around I can try and confirm it.
