- Does he still write for BYTE? Maybe you could contact him through BYTE
- and ask for any documentation or source code that he might have kept. This
- piece of hardware sounds like a hacker's delight!
-
- Well, he started his own mag, Circuit Cellar Ink, and he occasionally
- contributes. The Circuit Cellar Ink BBS had some software for the
- SSI-263, the speech synthesizer chip that he used, but not the Lisner
- code.
-
- BTW, Radio Shack used to sell the recognition chip, but not anymore. I
- fortunately bought one before they discontinued it :) Now if I can
- only find some time to actually build a circuit for it... :(
