Just a quick note on why I've been silent on my DG Nova 4, LGP-21,
etc all summer...
Basically, summer is car season. I just got a project car on the
road, I'm tweaking it now. I also need to service my other vintage
object, my 1963 Rambler Classic, which I usually drive every day.
Needs transmission overhaul.
The LGP-21 is safe in my living room (only vintage gear allowed in
the house! it's pretty!), the Nova 4 is in the lab, safe dry and
cool, awaiting crappy weather to keep me inside, where I'll find
the error in the drive (again).
I want to start on the LGP-21 this year. My Nova 4 experience has
informed that project, so I have an inkling where to start now on
the hardware bring-up. (Though I still don't have one inch of
software for it.)

The LGP-21 would make a great VCF exhibit ;)

Speaking of which, VCF Midwest is going to be REALLY lame unless more
people step forward with exhibit reigstrations.
Is there a reason all you midwesterners are deciding not to participate?
I hate this. For years I get whining about "when is there going to be a
VCF Midwest" or "I can't make it to the west or east coast, how about a
midwest event" or yada yada. Then we finally do a midwest event and it
gets ignored.
LAME!
Step up people!

All my machines are "lame" (1982 and later) :-)

Since you're not in the southern hemisphere, I'm not sure what you
mean. Summer doesn't start here in the northern hemisphere for
another few days yet.
Happy solstice!

Those are the only two recognizable seasons in Los Angeles.
