Re: RGB mod for TMS99xx based computers

You might be correct there Dave, there's nothing on the OSSC display.

Thanks. I have the PostNord app and look at it at least three times a day (not many updates unfortunately!) :D

Re: RGB mod for TMS99xx based computers

I didn't notice (or maybe it's been updated) but the Irish seller of this mod, has a fitting service and actually has pictures of it in an MTX and running Alphatron (through an OSSC upscaler by the looks of it - under the monitor, into an LCD - wrong aspect ratio unfortunately). I think it looks sha...

Re: RGB mod for TMS99xx based computers

I know Mark, I have the issue the other way, goods from the UK over 9.40 GBP (at today's rates) incur Danish VAT at 25% and depending on the item, customs charges. Add to that the PostNord (Denmark & Sweden's state-run postal service) handling feed of 160 DKK (18.80 GBP at today's rate), it's ex...

Re: RGB mod for TMS99xx based computers

Actually Martin, it seems that Tatung may have solved the too-much-blue issue with the TC01: https://atariage.com/forums/topic/308935-tms-rgb-an-rgb-mod-for-2020-and-beyond/page/5/?tab=comments#comment-4712449 Great detective work on their part. It's great that Memotech and Tatung published schemati...

Re: RGB mod for TMS99xx based computers

More interestingly and thus more expensive and currently rarer than hens teeth :shock: is this complete replacement for the TMS99xx: https://dnotq.io/f18a/f18a.html Unfortunately, the MK2 batch is not ready because the creator has some personal stuff going in the pandemic that means progress is temp...

RGB mod for TMS99xx based computers

I'm guessing that people have seen: tms-rgb-board.png It's a RGB modification for TMS99xx machines. It actually mentions the Memotech MTX on it's landing-page at: https://tms-rgb.com/ It's quite pricey if you buy it ready to install, about 32 EUR from Ireland (plus postage). Has anybody seen it or t...

Translations for article on Primrose Bank

Hi Dave, Just a minor contribution to the community but I recently bought some 2nd hand magazines locally (in Denmark) from the 80s on the Memotech, partly to enjoy and partly in the hope to contribute to your archive. However, it seems you already have them (should have checked first!). Anyway, the...

Re: Building a replacement MTX PSU

Yes, Martin, Mark and Bill that was it. Opened the case and the keyboard pcb end of the cable was off by one pin (unconnected pin was to the left, as viewed looking from end of the MTX with the external edge connector). I didn't notice, but I must have done this when I reassembled after the (very ne...

Re: Building a replacement MTX PSU

Thanks Dave. Only one month (32 days) in the making :lol: Actually, I feel quite proud. That might seem a bit daft to a lot of the folks here, for whom specifying and making your own add-ons (CFX, NFX, ReMemorizer, et al.) and whole computers (MTXplus, Z180 etc.) is like second nature. All had to do...
