Re: MegaSTE repair

I've been dabbling with this on and off in between (a lot of) other projects and narrowed all the issues down. A mate gave me a few bits and bobs from his Atari horde last year. Amongst them were some MegaSTE spares. I happened upon a post from Frank where mentions cache issues. I replaced U3 and U...

Re: The resurrection of atari-wiki.com

Good to see this back and running again and I appreciate the effort it took to get it back. I am also not getting the confirmation email to fully activate my account. I clicked several times to get the email from the preferences area but my mail server does not show any attempt for an inbound email ...

Re: New (old!) user from Australia

Hi there and thanks for letting me in. I started out with micro's in 1970 acquiring a 32K Commodore PET and that was when the bug bit - hard! That PET helped me realise that one didn't necessarily need to be artistic to be creative - BASIC was such an eye opener for me it was absolutely wonderful t...

Re: kodak80 blog

So, I was wondering about using Bluetooth for outputting audio from an ST. So, I created an adapter for the YM2149 chip which split the 3 analogue audio channels into stereo and then fed this into a Bluetooth emitter... YM2149 Bluetooth adapter.jpg An hey presto, I now have the audio outputting on v...

Re: C070523-001 Rev.C TOS upgrade please help

The adapter looks like a Realtime clock adapter and would only be needed if you want the clock to keep running when the computer is turned off. You would need the software to update the date/time into/from it as well. As noted, TOS 2.06 boots differently and without additional hardware modifications...

Re: kodak80's DSTB1 Build

Okay, here we go with my build progress... First up had to wait a bit longer for my OSHPark order as they missed the silkscreen on the first AfterDark run. New PCBs with silk screen arrived today. So I have 2 sets of PCBs now, some without silkscreen and some with. Will build one with silkscreen fi...

ClockInACan using 32.084988 crystal from an ST

I thought this ClockInACan project would be a great way to create an oscillator alternative for my ST projects. https://github.com/schlae/ClockInACan IMG_8508.jpg So I created a test one with a crystal from an old ST. The crystals are labelled as 32.084988mhz so this was a good use for these old cry...

Re: Life, the universe & everything...Atari (well, mostly)

That's a bit worrying...I'll have to get something working on the Falcon IDE first & then I might have something to compare against. Any details on the IDE to CF adapters you've found to exhibit this behaviour? So, I just re-tested the adapters and this one works fine: CF1-working.jpg CF1-worki...
