All: Does anyone know if scans of the Tandy newsletter ?The Whimper? exists on-line? I did some Googling tonight and came up mostly with stuff on Jessica Tandy whimpering :-) I?ve been told these newsletters had some good T2k info in them but I don?t see them on-line anywhere. Specifically, I?m fishing for information on getting MFM hard drives working on Tandy 2000 machines. I have two machines with to seemingly bad Tandon TM502 drives. I saw another thread from last month that complained about the poor quality of the Tandon drives, so it?s probably bad drives. I have an ST225 drive that I want to run externally as a test but I haven?t been able to locate a manual on the T2k HD controller nor the external drive (25-1025 I think). I don?t want to connect it blindly before I?m confident the controller is setup properly. Irrational fear maybe but I want to proceed methodically. Any info appreciated. Thanks.
