Re: [M100] 3D Printable replacement battery cover for M200

2020-06-28 Thread Hank Riley
 Steve,
If possible, please try to take and upload a picture or two of the actual copy 
part you did in black ABS.  Prefer at least one pic to be NOT installed in its 
place on the M200.  Looking for a good shot of the inside where all the tabs 
are and all the performance of your printer will be revealed.
Second, what type of printer do you have and do you like it?  Is it your first 
3D printer what you have now?
Thanks very much for sharing the design with us.

Re: [M100] Looking for TRS-80 Catalog Item 26-3612

2020-02-10 Thread Hank Riley
 I'm providing a link to the device.  From just the part number alone many on 
this list will not know what it is.
Functionally, I hope someone can describe the PC-2 end of the adapter and the 
operation of the dapter because it may be fairly simple to build an adapter.
It may not be much more than a serial port to real RS-232 level serial port 
circuit.
Maybe no need for any top dollars to be produced.

 I have a near mint PC-2 that I want to network to the Tandy 102 over wifi.
This item from the Radio Shack catalog would make that possible,

Willing to pay top dollar for this device.

Thanks!

Re: [M100] M100 repair video

 The video was worth watching just to see how the case is opened up and the PCB 
separated.  
Would never in a million years thought the crystal would fail.
Makes one wonder if these crystals were not well made.  They are subject to 
damage from physical jolts, but still, seems quite odd that even 10% of repairs 
would be from this one component's failure.

  Related data for the M100 (under 100 mA most often).  I'm not sure where I

 In practice, the 102 won't draw anywhere near 400mA under most circumstances. 
Just about any DC battery pack rated in the 6v range will do the job. If you 
feel like adding a fast blow fuse, more power to you.

Any update on when all those files will be restored?  
It's already been about a month now.
