to ALL re: TRY 9600 HST HERE?
|
|
|
|
The 9600 baud modem is back on line. I can't connect to it. Randy
|
|
SAYS it says "connect 9600", but I get nothing.
|
|
Then again, my 9600 doesn't connect to ANYTHING with ARQ (MNP) so I
|
|
suspect a bug in MY modem - perhaps CBBS' also? Could someone please
|
|
try calling in here at 9600 with an HST set to 9600? Thanks. (For
|
|
those of you wondering why I said 9600 twice, it is because there is
|
|
such a thing as coming in at 14.4K, but CBBS isn't set for that).
|
|
Thanks!

to HOWARD HOYT re: R/BODOT TO ASCII CONVERSION
|
|
|
|
(correct spelling is "Baudot")
|
|
The actual conversion from Baudot to ASCII is pretty easy. First, you
|
|
have to remember that Baudot has two "shift states." In one state,
|
|
codes represent letters; in the other, they represent numbers or punctuation.
|
|
Two of the Baudot codes (letter shift and figure shift) are reserved
|
|
for switching between these states. A routine to convert a Baudot
|
|
character to ASCII would look like this:
|
|
toascii(code)
|
|
int code;
|
|
{static int state=0;
|
|
if (code==FIGURESHIFT)
|
|
{state=32;
|
|
return(0);
|
|
}
|
|
else if (code==LETTERSHIFT)
|
|
{state=0;
|
|
return(0);
|
|
}
|
|
else
|
|
return(asctab[code+state]);
|
|
}
|
|
where asctab[] is a 64-element table consisting of the ASCII values
|
|
corresponding to the 32 Baudot codes, first in the letters state and
|
|
then in the figures state. You'll have to get a Baudot table to look
|
|
up the actual character codes.
|
|
|
|
If the ultimate purpose of this is to allow PCs to communicate with
|
|
TDDs, remember that TDD modems are NOT signal-compatible with standard
|
|
computer modems.

to HOWARD HOYT re: <CONT>
|
|
|
|
TDDs use a HALF-DUPLEX FSK modulation method. Half-duplex is used here in
|
|
its true meaning: only one side can be sending carrier at a time.
|
|
The parties to the conversation have to "hand off."
|
|
The point of all this is that merely writing a program to translate
|
|
ASCII to Baudot and vice-versa will NOT enable a PC to talk to a TDD
|
|
without special hardware. There are some modems that will work with
|
|
the TDD modulation method; they actually take ASCII input and do the
|
|
translation themselves, as well as the appropriate FSK modulation.
|
|
Unfortunately, they're rather expensive and while they can also function
|
|
as full-duplex ASCII modems, they're limited to 300 baud.

|

I am looking for your old, used, discarded (but working) true blue
|
|
IBM PC motherboard (original model 5150). Prfer the "PC 2" which
|
|
is the 256K motherboard, but will consider the older "PC 1" which
|
|
was socketed for 64K. I do not need the RAM. This is for an IBM PC
|
|
for my kids, so I don't have to take my bulletin board offline every
|
|
time they want to use the PC. Best way to get me is to leave a
|
|
message on my BBS, Discovery Place at 708-383-6335 as I don't get on
|
|
here very often. I also have a few items laying around that you may
|
|
want/need as part of a trade - 4 floppy ctrller (IBM), Epson MX100
|
|
for parts(?), internal Hayes 1200B, PC DOS 3.3 shrink wrapped.
|
|
- Thanks, Mike

That board also says that it can serve as a 4800 MNP? any input. Their
|
|
prices I see are for quantity (2?). I have some interest in a FAX
|
|
board. AH, I'm reading the send only details, don't see the send and
|
|
receive, which would seem to be a better choice.Leave me a message
|
|
if you find out anything more.

If you can wait until February 25, you can go to the College of
|
|
DuPage. The Computer Central Show is held there about 10 times per
|
|
year. I got a high density 3.5" drive for $80.00 for my machine. The low
|
|
density drives were anywhere from $60+. Both new and used hardward and software
|
|
are sold there. The admission is $5, it starts at 9:30, come early or
|
|
you'll miss the bargains. The show is held in the sport arena, you
|
|
can enter on the south east corner of the campus. If you need any
|
|
other information, let me know.
