90% repairs, 10% upgrades (I can many upgrades myself, but like one upgrade I need needs a soldered chip to be desoldered and a socket put in its place. I can take from there) Thanks, Tuc

East of the Mississippi?

Hi, I have some TRS-80 Model I's and EI's that need some TLC, and I'm not the person to do it. Looking for someone (Prefer Northern NJ but do travel) that I can pay to bring these into line, and make some pre-packaged mods to (Lower case, Chargen replacement, etc). Thanks, Tuc

Haven't forgotten/ignored. My Model I isn't sending video sync signals anymore and given I'm not an electronics person, trying to find someone to help (Or just pay, I'm MUCH better at just paying. ;) )

@ldkraemer - No go. No matter what, I didn't get any sort of light on the SA801, and having the converter plugged in produced inconsistent booting. Is there any sort of devices I can put in between the cable(s) and the drive to see what signals are happening? I have a mini-logic analyzer, never...

Hi, Not my site, I'm just a customer. :) Yea, he's not updated the site recently. His original version was for Model III/4, and it ever so briefly mentions there is an additional board for the Model I. When I got that he seemed motivated to make a single board version, which is what I posted...

No worries, just explaining why I had it there in the first place. :) Ok, will do. Something that I didn't mention that might be at play, is that the Physical 1/Logical 0 is a Gotek with Shugart Emulation running HXC2001 software (Not the more common FlashFloppy). There is no semblance of...

@ldkraemer - Some more reasoning for my original pinning. Pin 2 - One of the 34<>50 devices I bought claims Shugart/34 pin 2 is "/CDC /REDWC". Shugart/50 pin 2 is "/TG43 /REDWC". The device has a jumper that if you need either disk density (/REDWC) or TG43 to connect it. , otherwise it can be...

Hi, Ok, so as for T3/T4/T5/T6 , they're jumpered in the drive, and I am trying to use this on physical 4/logical 3 on this drive line. I adjusted as you suggest. I only used 32/DS3 since thats where I want. It's jumpered for all 4 on the drive, but its my understanding between the pulled pin...

Thats been the biggest issue. I bought like 5 34<>50 converters, and they'all all PC. So used that as a base for the most part, and then got rid of the twist part.

Just a reminder that there is - https://www.plaidvest.com/newkey80.html For the Model I it fits between the MI and EI. I have a newer version than whats there, its a single board -

Hello, Trying to connect an SA801 to a standard 34 pin Shugart bus. (TRS-80 Model I). I’ve tried and it's just not working so hopefully someone can point out where I’ve gone wrong. The SA801 was just checked, lubed, tested by a local company. I put it in a case with a new PS and connectors...

Hi, You can't have both active at the same time. Either you have the *KBD signal active and the TRS keyboard works, or you cut off the *KBD signal and the NewKey/80 works. He suggested never to try to have both active, and I took that suggestion. :) But it works great. And it plugs into a...

Wow, didn't think this would get picked up again. As for Marcels device, yes, it only allows your TRS-80 to become a USB keyboard to something else. I've asked if he was planning to be able to inject into the TRS-80, and at the time he wasn't. (But knowing him....) I actually ended up finding...

Hi, Me again. ;) I'm interested in trying to set up a KVM to a TRS-80 Model I. The video is "Component" which I should be able to use generally available consumer items to get into HDMI (Maybe not the most PERFECT picture, but won't need to be 4K ;) ). Its the keyboard part I'm wondering about...

Hi, First timer to TandyAssembly here. Appreciate all the discussions, and especially the talks. They were all great , but a few shout outs - Ruud - Great talk and really interesting. I'm not a MII person so don't take offense. :) Hey Birt! - Amazon is a bit richer after your talk. ;) Ordered...
