I have you look into a small bug in IMD, related to using it to make HP LIF
disks.
I was trying to format an HP LIF disk from IMD (77 tracks, 30 sectors, 5
interleave, 512 MFM encoding, 256 bytes per sector)
On my 703 the label says switch 4 unused, and it does nothing when I try it.

I recently acquired a TI Silent 703 on ePay and just fired up. It worked
right away. But I expected it to work at 300 bauds as advertised, and to my

Hi Grant,
I looked at my collection and I have the 67-69 ROMs, which I also identified
as the DS/1000 ROMs (Distributed Systems Network). I also have a

Anyhow, looking at the ROMs and dates, I suspect these are E/F microcode
