Thanks, but you don't have to. I don't use it that much.

It should go with Turbo Assembler without a peep. You might add a
* =3D $2000
to position the code in memory. Run the stuff with sys 8192 then.

My dear friend, the legendary music man ATOO used PCM (pulse width) sampl=
es and his solution to=20
the 'whining' problem was:

* Use highest possible carrier frequency (I'm sure you do this, right?)
* Use lowpass filtering, just like you.
* Check the timing of the sampleplay loop. This means that you *must* ens=
ure that the delay (in=20
cycles) between the output of two consecutive samples is constant. If not=
, you will hear=20
distortion which sounds like whining. It actually sounds like the carrier=
 istself drops in=20
frequency.

I don't know how Danko & Co solved this, but they certainly was able to p=
lay 8 bit samples=20
without any detectable carrier (earwise that is).=20

You can also try to use the MemBlitter, but I guess that is cheating... :=

Hate to break it to you but any dime-a-dozen 100K ohm resistor between
pins 5 and 7 on j-stick port one will do...

Some people who put files on ftp sites keep forgetting that there is no w=
ay
for dissolving a ZIP archive created with the Deflate method, used by PKZ=
IP
2.04, on the C64/C128. They also forget that the maximum filename length =
on
the C64/C128 is 16 characters. They still forget to verify the integrity =
of
the archive and that the dissolved files work.

Anyway, I got Prn-GW-pages.zip from ccnga, dissolved it on my ISP and
downloaded the CVT files. I was going to put them in an SFX archive and
upload it to ccnga. However, the main file, prngwpages.cvt, was corrupted
and couldn't be converted to Geos format (it has only 307 bytes...).

I hope the person who uploaded it will create a new archive, in a format =
we
handle, with files that work on it.

  Well, then I would definitely recommend you get Mapping the 64 from

i would be careful too say that the mouse in joy port 1 acts as the=20
dongle ! it passes the boot up test , but it will not do a lot more then=20
that ! i think that the dongle does some sort of encryption that C-Kit=20
uses in its routeens ... the startup test only tests for values of some=20
sort that the mouse puts out ...
TO anyone that could shed some more light too this , i would be=20
interested to learn more !

They both worked last time i checked, but in the meanwhile i've lost all=20
the cables/power supplies, so i can't check now.  I've heard that these=20
normally go for much more now, but I just want to get this old stuff out=20
of my basement....  Yours for $30 plus shipping....

Hi All,

An old-style 1541 disk drive of mine has developed a problem.   When I tu=
rn
it on, all that happens is the green power light lights up, and the red e=
rror
light flashes periodically, whilst the motor runs continuously.   I can't
read the error channel, get a directory listing, or perform any I/O comma=
nds.
Can anyone tell me what's likely to be wrong with it, and whether the pro=
blem
can be easily fixed?

Thanks,

- Matthew.

Can someone tell me wether the innards of a C-64 will fit into a 64-C
case without modification?
