Re: MFX - Installation, Usage, Issues, Questions, Problems
I don’t know anything about the G540 programmer, but I do know that my TL866a, although when I bought it, listed the GAL22V10 as a supported device, would not correctly program the GAL. The symptoms were similar to those you describe, it would appear to program the device, then fail the verify. Alth...

Re: Strange behaviour
First thing that springs to mind is a possible bad connection between the MTX and CFX-II boards due to the edge connector, but it would be good to try and confirm whether the problems are with the base machine first. The loading problem could be a bad tape, do you have other tapes that you can try w...

Re: Memofest 2023, Where and When?
[*]When I was developing my DIY Navtex receiver , the decoding software was developed on my MTX, using the CTC for timing. (I thought that at one time Dave had a page for this as it is Z80 based, but if so I can no longer find it). That’s my fault - another example of poor site layout and indexing ...

Re: Memofest 2023, Where and When?
Yes, the port is only rated to supply 20mA, which isn't really enough (it initially caught us out on the MTX PS/2 keyboard project).

As you say, its location isn't really user friendly either

Re: Memofest 2023, Where and When?
on the uses for the PIO, I mentioned the PAL reader that Tony Brewer designed for me http://primrosebank.net/computers/mtx/projects/pal_reader/palreader.htm There are also quite a few legacy electronics projects listed here, such as a RTC for the MTX http://primrosebank.net/computers/mtx/projects/mt...
