Hello!
Yesterday I brought home a pile of OSI equipment. I got a Challenger II (in
the blue, rectangular case,) a Challenger 4P case with keyboard (seems to
connect to the main box as a keyboard,) two 5.25" disk drives in the style
of the 4P and two joysticks. Inside the challenger are the following boards:
505 Rev B CPU/IO/Floppy
527 24k RAM
540 Rev B Video
567 Votrax Speech Synthesizer w/ external module;
The Challenger II seems to have a well modified power supply, including and
an added circuit board with two transformers, as well as four volt meters,
mounted in cardboard and taped to the inside of the case.
My first question in what is likely to be a long series is: If I intend to
try and get it running, what is my first step?
I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to do with the system yet. Its the
first time I've had something of this caliber. I have no idea what its worth
Thanks
Joe
