Hi, All,
Last week, I intercepted a 1970s Remex paper tape reader from a CNC
mill that was on its way to the scrappers. It resembles this one:

I wanted to look at Steve Loboyko's code for his PIC serial adapter
and my attempt to download his link to his source was denied by his
ISP (due to the .asm extension). I wrote him at the address in the
GIF file he embedded in the page and my message bounced.
Does anyone have a current address for Steve Loboyko or happen to have
already downloaded his file remex.asm and could send it to me?
My plan is to examine the code, look for pitfalls, and see what it
would take to implement a similar scheme on an AVR chip since that's
what I have in abundance. It looks like a fairly simple handshake and
perhaps a bitwise data inversion then byte-wise serial transmission,
but I'd rather peek over someone's shoulder and see what they did,
given the chance.
Thanks,
