Hello, all:
I'm not too familiar with HTML, but I'm guessing that this question is e
asy to answer.
What's the code to open a new browser window when someone clicks on a li
nk? I want a new window to open with the requested page as the open document
.
Thanks.

New subject: couple of books, spring cleaning
In my recent salvage digging a couple books came home with me;
Digital MicroPDP-11 Hardware Information, book sized notebook thing in a
sleeve. Copyright is 1987, and it appears to be about what goes in a BA213
chassis.
IEEE International conference on circuits and computers, ICCC 82,
proceedings. 632 phone book sized pages of pure geek pleasure.
I like to get about $5 and postage for interesting books I offer first to
the list, but I am happy to entertain ridiculous offers with the caveat
that the firstest closest to $5 gets the book, and if no offer suits me its
eBay.
SPRING CLEANING
I was thinking it might be interesting if we picked a day, say 3/1/2000,
and everybody on the list digs through there stored treasures and in one
fell swoop we post lists of stuff we want to sell or get rid of. Kind of a
hamfest for the whole list.

If no one has come forward for the hardware manual, I'll meet your price on
that.
I have a BA213 work-in-progress so that would definitely be useful. Let me know
shipping to 77095. Thanks

If there are any physically active hams out there, take a look at
http://www.homingin.com. John knows about my interest in ARDF, and we are
still looking for people to help round out the US ARDF team for the World
Championships that will be held Oct. 13 - 18 in Nanjing, China. End of OT
plug.
In response to the reply about hams not needing to know Morse code anymore,
that is not correct except for the new Technician entry level class; all
others need only 5 WPM though.

I have to have a LOT of respect for Hams.
They have given me many great swap meets over the years.
Also THX to the WRPI Video Lab annex --great playground.

WHAT! You aren't suggesting we let those guys with the weird radios mix
with our vintage computers at this hamfest are you? <running ducking etc.>
Maybe we should consider creating/hijacking a alt.hamfest newsgroup?

Me too!
Mostly hf (soon as I get my antennas back up) and soon RTTY (again).
Some vhf, but most of my gear needs new batteries.. And to stay
on topic: none of my hf gear is less than 10 years old - including
the computers I use with it.

Not a ham..... a long time SWL and boatanchor collector. Learned morse
during my beacon-chaser phase.
One of these days will get the motivation to climb that tree and restore
my
storm damaged antenna.

I'm KF9VP, and sometime soon I will get kf9vp.ampr.org [44.72.70.29] back
on the air. It's a IBM PC XT with a Seagate ST-225 hard drive; when you
open a telnet connection to it the hard drive seeks away like mad for
about 15-20 seconds before you get a login: prompt. The sound almost
makes you feel sorry for the drive :-)

Wow, yeah NOS is kindof advanced as DOS programs go. My main ham interest
is TCP/IP packet actually, I'm too shy to chew the rag with strangers around
the world. :-) But I'm using a modern machine (relatively, a dual
Pentium 100) with Linux. Support for TCP/IP over AX.25 is just excellent.
After 5 years of evangelizing some of the other hams around here are
starting to use it too. It doesn't even serve much purpose really, hardly
any traffic actually flows over packet but I guess sometimes people like
to log in to my system as a way to telnet out to the Internet. I want to
provide as many gateway type functions as I can eventually but haven't
figured it all out yet. And I want to put together a second setup for
testing purposes and for mobile use. I'm using a Mitrek for operating
at 9600 baud (now we're back on topic kindof, the radios are old! :-)
When I first got involved with packet I was using my 386 machine with
a couple of MFM drives that I'd pressed into RLL service. I think one
was a full-height 30 meg drive and the other was an ST-251. There wasn't
a lot of excess space but plenty for a no-frills install of Slackware
back then. I started with a somewhat flaky Heathkit HD-4040 tnc and then
upgraded to a KPC-9612 to do 9600 baud, and that's what I still have now
although I've got a PI2 kit to finish building some day (need to find some
parts to finish it, such as the SCC chip and some others) and a
PacComm 9600 baud modem to go with it, and some other 9600 baud TNC for
another channel or whatever. I'm on 144.91 MHz but there is a 440-band
backbone too which I want to get on eventually. I found a couple of
digiboards on ebay so now I have plenty of serial ports to hook up as many
TNC's as I like (as well as eliminating the main reason I wanted to get
that MassComp working... anybody locally want a MassComp?)
I'm also supposedly working on a little project to send traffic reports
out over APRS, using data taken from the ADOT road-speed sensors, ramp
meters and so on. But that involves somebody else who hasn't been in
contact with me for a couple months so I will have to yank his chain again
one of these days. Meanwhile maybe I'll find a good deal on an extra 1200
baud TNC so I can actually do APRS. Linux software for that is starting to
exist in embryonic form.

I'd guess I'm not one of the ones you know about as I don't
