I need a precision soldering iron (long needle like tip) for electronics use, any suggestions? I found one made by GOOT a CS-30 in an old radio shack catalog but they no longer have them and I cant find a website in the US that still sells them. I have an scsi chip on an amiga addon board that got wacked in shipping and a few of the pins have broken off from their solder pads (its a surface mount chip and none of the pins are broke just desoldered). My current 23 watt soldering iron has a tip thats just too big for this kind of work. Thanks for any help (I assume one can be found for around $20)

Delayed messages to this group

by ernestls＠comcast.net

Has anyone else been experiencing posting delays for the cctalk list. I'm seeing delays of from 2 to 4 days, and I'm not sure why. I am posting this message at 10:30am on 7/24. It'll probably show up on the list right away because I made a point of asking. LOL. E.

Data conversion (Commodore, 8250 disk drive, superbase)

by semlj001＠hotmail.com

I have 4 disks worth of data saved using a commodore 64 and an 8250 double disk drive. The program that they were saved in used SuperBase as it's database. I'm looking to somehow import this data into a microsoft access database. Converting it into plain text would be great. If anyone has the means to do this or has some pointers as to how I could accomplish this it would be great.

Differences in the Z80 processors?

by melamy＠earthlink.net

there is also the Z80H... 2.5 mhz, 4mhz, 6mhz, and finally 8 mhz replacing with a faster z80 should not pose a problem. It should actually relax the timing a bit and work more reliably depending on the original design. best regards, Steve Thatcher >--- Original Message --- >From: "Ernest" <ernestls(a)comcast.net> >To: <cctalk(a)classiccmp.org> >Date: 7/24/03 10:20:49 PM > I have seen z80, z80a, and z80b processors, and I'm curious about what the >differences are between the different versions of the processor?

at&t 458

by we3＠sprynet.com

Does anyone know anything about the at&t 458? I believe it's a serial daisy wheel printer. What I'm interested in is what the dip switch settings in back of the printer are supposed to be set to. If you have an at&t 458, when looking at it from the back, the dip switches are on lower left corner behind a little door which needs a screwdriver to pry open. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Backup Tapes

by romboc＠shaw.ca

Hello, If you are still interested, I have a total of 11 compatible tapes (8 Teac CT-600N and 3 Maxell CS-600XD). All are used and have used labels. As far as I know, they all still work. (I still have the tape drive as well, but have no longer an operating Apple system, so I cannot check these). If you are interested, please let me know. romboc

1981 Ohio Scientific C3-B computer-Looking for a good home

by palamara＠comcast.net

I have a 1981 Ohio Scientific C3-B computer looking for a good home. This CP/M based computer has three processors (6502, 6800 and Z80), a Winchester 36 mb hard drive and two 8" floppy drives in a case a bit smaller than a four drawer file cabinet. It also has a keyboard equipped monitor, a Texas Instruments printer and associated software and manuals. It was running fine when it was last used about five years ago.
