Thanks! ?I'm definitely enjoying my trips back to 1976. ?My house is early 70s and in the basement with an old table and the terminal, computer and monitor I'm pretty much in 1976. ?I really am hoping to learn how to program using the monitor... still don't completely understand how adding two digits to memory addresses makes it do something. I'll probably leave the machine be.. it's a bit fragile. ?Might be fun to get the disk card working and get a working drive for it.. although I have no software on disk. Re: EPROM programming.. wish I could do that with my MSI 6800.. and get it back to stock config. ?The homemade monitor it has is useless!

Your problem is getting SWTBUG to use the alternative serial card (port) for the loader command, rather than the console port. To my recollection it (SWTBUG) is not programmed to provide for that. I have a vague recollection of some monitor that allowed one to redirect the I/O port for the subsequent command or something like that but it was probably for some other machine (don't have the command list for SWTBUG at hand). So you could modify SWTBUG (typically with hand-assembled patches) and add a new facility and burn a new EPROM to give you a monitor tailored for your system config.
