I'm looking to get it onto a pc to relive old times and to prove that i could write real code..... Assembler / Debugger and emulator for the MS6502 written in Turbo Pascal.... It's on a 360KB disk though! ________________________________________ From: ProFox [profox-boun...@leafe.com] on behalf of Dave Crozier [da...@flexipol.co.uk] Sent: 21 November 2016 08:25 To: ProFox Email List Subject: RE: [NF] EXTERNAL SSD hard drives I do in fact Adam and it is only a single sided 160Kb one - not even double sided...

All it does is simply routes comms packets from the Radio Amateur network onto my LAN. It has been turned on almost continuously since 1986 and never faltered apart from a couple of mains outages.
