This really is a tough one- it's possible some of the stand-alone
transfer protocol modules might have implemented it, but didn't
include any info in the docs... as a search yielded no more than
you found.
Two thoughts: The WildCat BBS has (IIRC) the IMODEM protocol; contact
the WildCat prople and ask them for just that single module (they
want about $800 for the BBS source code).
Secondly... reverse engineering by setting up a second PC running
any terminal emulator, try sending a file from the IMODEM-only device,
surely it will respond to ACK/NAK... try NAKing some packets, ACK some
others, dump the result, start hacking...
Be sure to filter out the ACKs/NAKs you're sending from the
dump, no need to confuse yourself...

We have a stack of these at the museum! We will keep one for the magnetic

If anyone wants it, I have a Zenith Data Systems Z-386 SX/20 available
for free in Ridgewood, New Jersey. You have to come pick it up (or offer
me enough to make it worth my time to pack it for shipping).
It appears to work just fine. It is missing one of the two 3.5" drive
slot covers. It is currently configured with a 40mb HD, a 360k 5.25"
floppy, 2mb of RAM, and CGA video.
I can't figure out how to change the setup, so it is useless to me (if I
can't at least get it to accept a 3.5" drive, I can't use it).
It is up for grabs, but like I said, I don't want to take the time to
pack it up unless I am getting money or something good in trade. It can
be picked up in Ridgewood, NJ (North East NJ). I am only going to keep it
for a day or two to see if it gets claimed, after that, there won't be
enough left of it to claim. I can store it longer for someone as long as
you tell me roughly when you will pick it up.

Yes but I was working on the presumption of xN=8
and for every permutation of 8bit A and 8bit B.

I hear Burger Kings carry Poutine now... but I'll

Does anyone know where I can get "Rubber Restorer"? I know it comes in a
spray.
I thought I had bought it before at Radio Shack, but they didn't have any or
a clue.
Thanks,

I believe it was banned along with CFCs...

Yup... got one. It's a wonder I didn't start regarding them
as "Hewlett-Backward DeskJams" sooner...

p.s. Hey Don, got the board, haven't tried it yet, will keep U posted
I'll forward this to the Classic Computer Collector's
mailing list. Someone there certainly will have a lead
on some of these.
