It's just the MAX233 design on that site with a

I rather doubt it rates a schematic of its own :^) I also built the
7404 interface also shown on the site, to refresh my skills before
building this one, but I think that my C64 is a bit to far from the PC
for it to work.
Oh, no problems.
Cool! I've been wanting to try it since I heard about it.
I'm awaiting a
password reset on the box so I can log in and restart the
server. It may be available via IP for a but until the DNS issue gets
resolved.
It is a SDLT II Tape case (no real difference to a
TK50 or DLT case),
the tapes hold 600GB per tape. We have the empty boxes coming out our
ears at work, though most do get reused, and they seem to work really
well as a small project box. Simply used "zip-strip" cable ties to
fasten the circuit board to the case with 4 holes in the bottom of the
box. While I don't like how the User Port connector hangs out, I'm
rather pleased with the rest of the construction.
Well, the one I built is at
www.jbrain.com/vicug/gallery/ez232/ , but it
has no case.
