- Announcement - ARRL Information Email Server (info@arrl.org)
-
- The services that the ARRL provides via the internet include the
- Email Information Server and the Technical Information Service.
- The Information Server is an automated mail server that gives you
- access to many of information files relating to various facets of
- Amateur Radio. You can retrieve any or all of these files by
- sending an email message to info@arrl.org here at ARRL HQ.
- Each file you request is then mailed to you automatically.
-
- To use it, mail messages to:
-
- info@arrl.org
-
- Each line of the message body should contain a command as shown below.
- The subject of your message is not processed and may be omitted. You
- may place as many commands in a message as you want. The files you
- request will be sent to you in separate messages. Only ASCII text
- files are supported.
-
- Valid INFO commands:
-
- reply <address> (may be needed - see below for explanation)
- help
- index
- send FILENAME (example: send prospect.txt)
- quit
-
- In the above message example, "help" retrieves a brief set of
- instructions for info, "index" retrieves a list of available files
- and "prospect.txt" retrieves a text file containing information on
- becoming a radio amateur.
-
- Note to users with FTP capability: All of these files are also
- available by anonymous ftp to ftp.std.com in the
- /pub/hamradio/ARRL/Server-files/info area.
-
- If you want to retrieve several text files with one message, use a
- separate line for each "send filename" request.
-
- Your From: field or Reply-to: field in your header should contain a
- valid Internet address, including full domain name. If your From:
- field does not contain a valid Internet address, the answer will not
- reach you. If this is the case, then use the reply command as shown
- above. When needed, this command should always be the first command
- in your message.
-
- IMPORTANT: Please use the quit command in your message. This will
- prevent processing errors from message signatures.
-
- PLEASE NOTE!: This is an automated system not capable of handling
- written requests. Any questions on the info-server or the content
- of any of its files should be directed to mtracy@arrl.org.
-
- ALSO NOTE!: Do *NOT* reply to messages sent from info@arrl.org - the
- reply address is redirected to keep bounced messages from endlessly
- looping. Write a new message to info@arrl.org instead.
-
-
- The Technical Information Service gives League members on the
- internet better access to the knowledgeable technical staff here
- at ARRL HQ. Questions relating to Amateur Radio and related
- technical topics are welcome. To use this service, send a normal
- e-mail message to tis@arrl.org with your question spelled out in
- plain english. For best service, be as specific as possible and
- keep your line length in messages to a maximum of 80 characters.
- Due to personnel limitations, priority will be given to questions
- from League members.

- Subject: Can you tell me what these memory chips are?
- To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
-
- Hi,
-
- I have some memory chips that I need more info on. Specifically, I
- have these chips:
-
- KM41C1000AJ-8
- KM41C1000BJ-8 Is this really different from the AJ?
- KM41C4000AJ-8
- M5M44410AJ A Mitsubishi chip
-
- I am reasonably sure the first two are 1Mbit x 1 chips. I hope the third is a
- 4Mbit x 1 chip. I hope the fourth is also a 4Mbit x 1 chip, but fear it is a
- 1Mbit x 4 instead. I intend to use these chips in having some SIMMs made up
- for a PC.
-
- In a somewhat related topic. Do any of these companies that build
- SIMMS from "your" chips offer to remove the surface mounted chips from existing
- PC boards?
-
- TIA,
-

- The XR-2206 is made by EXAR, and is a monolithic function gernerator. It
- makes a sig generator - it can make sine, square, triangle, ramp and
- pulse waveforms.
-
- I don't know of any crosses, but most electronics wholesalers ought to be
- able to supply EXAR ics.

- It's made by EXAR and is very common. Jameco Electronics (1-800-237-6948)
- lists it as part #34972 and sells it for 3.75 in quantity 1. Jameco's

- It happens again and again. Every couple of weeks six tremendous large

- three times. I think al the FCC's and PTT's like it, because it keeps
