Apple II GS issue with Adtpro

Submitted by gf65 on January 11, 2025 - 1:01pm

Hi

I bought a usb to mini din 8 pins cable to use Adtpro with an Apple II GS and transfer files to local disks (5.25 or 3.5). https://a.aliexpress.com/_EIzLyC4 

Note that I managed to test my Adtpro with someone's Apple II e (with db25 cable) from my Win PC 

The apple 2 Gs doesn't have any serial card so I plugged the cable in the modem port

running the process with IN#2 and ctrl A + 14B before transferring the data, nothing happens on the 2Gs

I tried the printer port but it's the same result

Am I missing something ?

Frozen Signal's IOU and MMU replacement adapters.

Submitted by frozen signal on January 3, 2025 - 11:42pm

I am starting this thread so I can ask for some feedback on my designs for an adapter for the IOU and MMU. As I mentionned in this thread:  https://www.applefritter.com/comment/110444#comment-110444, ReActiveMicro originally offered to design the hardware for the replacement adapters. However, Henry told me recently that he wouldn't be able to work on this any time soon given his lack of free time. So, I decided to revisit an attempt I did some time ago.

Submitted by jderas on December 31, 2024 - 8:29pm

Does anyone have an ALS Smarterm II (80 column card)? I'd like to ask a favor, I need a copy of the EPROM contents. I have a card that seems to have a corrupt 2716. It never reads the same contents... The card is a clone of the ALS card, best I can tell. I cannot find this EPROM, just the manuals for the ALS. Card looks like this:

Retronaut Log Cabin Build - CH01: The Foundation

In late June 2024 work finally kicked off on building the new Log Cabin, where future Retronaut videos will be filmed.

This new space would allow for projects simply not possible in the old studio space. The foundation needs building, so lets get that done first!

But the area where the cabin would be built had issues. Flooding was a problem and the existing shed, built back in the 1980's would have to be
