Hello there. The other day I was feeling a tad nostalgic and thought about constructing an old-time crytal radio set. I figured on substituting a modern germanium diode for the crystal, and winding the antenna coil, etc., myself. The only problem I seem to have is in locating a source for a tuning capacitor -- you know, the old meshed-plate variable condensers which used to be the mainstay for tuning circuits. Well these things seem to be all but extinct in their original catalog habitats. Trimmer capacitors are relatively abundant, but are not really suitable for this application. So, can anyone point me to a supplier of tuning capacitors in the 0--360 pF range? Manythanks. --

It sorta depends on what you drive. I remember running a two channel Motorola with a vibrator power supply and about 40 tubes in a 1958 Volkwagen. The poor little 6 V generator had a heck of a time, and if you keyed the mic at night, you needed to be stationary, because your lights got AWFUL DIM. Isn't progress wonderful?

: I have seen the existance of electronics solder with a 2% silver : content that seems to have good wetting and fatique reatings. : Can anyone tell me why it is not used? (silver is not such an expensive : metal). : : : Andy : For the most part, silver-solder is not used for general soldering tasks due to the mechanism of dendritic growth. Silver-solder, when exposed to high humidity and placed in an electric field, will actually grow dendrites which are conductive and will adventually electrically short across closely spaced nodes which are creating the field. For this reason, silver is allowed only in hermetically sealed assemblies. Fortunatly, tin-lead solder is quite stable and will not grow dendrites as fast as silver-solder. Therefore, it is used extensively. Jerry Long

I'm working on an audio mixer project, but I'm having trouble finding parts. I want to use op-amps for the gain control stages. The ones I have found that are good for audio are LM739 and LM833, but I cannot find either of these in the electronic parts places I've looked. Are there any good substitute op-amps and/or are there any parts suppliers in the LA area that carry this kind of thing (10KOhm dual audio taper slider pots would be nice, too). Any info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

This is completely false. This is also false. What you need for multisession capability is multisession capability -- which is based on the firmware and electronics, not the drive speed. I'll admit, though, that I have not seen a multisession capable drive that isn't double speed. The above (1 & 2), proves 3 to be false. The Apple CD300 is an excellent double-speed multi-session PhotoCD capable drive. So are drives based on the slightly-faster Toshiba XM3401. Some companies selling such drives are: Spin Peripherals (a bargain at $499) and PLI (a company I hate) and Relax Technologies (a company I know little about other than that they are a longtime player in Mac mailorder, which is usually a good sign). The NEC CDR74 is also a good choice (NEC's own mechanism, I think). ClubMac sells it for around $619. Your welcome, ooh but now I see your from Germany. Most of the mailorder info does you little good, I guess. If not: Spin Peripherals -- 800-466-1200 Club Mac -- 800-258-2622 Relax Tech -- 510-471-6112 Nothing wrong with the Apple, though, which is based on a Sony mechanism and speed-identical to the NEC. The Toshiba's speed advantage is very slight: 20% in average access time (a minor plus) and 10% in data transfer rate (a slightly more important plus).

I have a question about accessing certain addresses on a chip, particulary a 27C512 EPROM. Although I don't know that much about it, as I understand it, there's a pin on the chip that, when voltage is applied, kicks up the address. The question is how do you determine how many bytes the address is incremented by?? For example, if I have code I want to be accessed at $2000 and also at say $4000 how do I move the address pointer to those positions?? Thanks for any info...

Will I need to get a specific driver to use this drive on a Mac? thanks...Charles

Here's another question by a hesitant Powerbook purchaser. I want to be able to run Mathematica and would like to hear some comments from the gallery about this. How much slower does the program run on a machine without an FPU (namely a PB160) versus a machine with an FPU (namely a PB170). What types of calculations get bogged down the most. I primarily due moderately simple algebra, integrals which can be dealt with analytically and plotting including 3-d plots. I don't do a lot of numerical work. Would a PB160 with a lot of memory ( and the very nice video port ) be sufficient or should I really try to get an FPU for this type of work? Is a PB170 with 8Mb faster than a PB160 with 12 or 16Mb. All comments appreciated.

<><><><> L O O K I N G F O R D A N A W E I C K <><><><> HE IS A CROOK. DON'T DEAL WITH HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please Help: I am looking for Dana Weick. A month ago I made a deal with him over the net. I was to sell him some memory, in exchang for $100 and a 486-66 cpu. I thought the deal was great, so I went on with it. I sent him the memory COD FOR $100. He was then suppose to send me the cpu. I receive his COD payment on 4/8/93. He send me a message the he sent the cpu out 4/16/93. It has been two weeks, and I didn't receive the CPU. I send him numerous message asking for confirmation that the cpu was ship, or what address he send it to (to make sure it didn't get lost in the mail.) He never reply my mail. I finally resorted to calling him in Arizona. The first call didn't get throught, I got an answering machine. I left him my number. He didn't reply. I call again the next day and he pick up the phone. I asked him if he had send out the cpu. He said yes, but he doesn't know what address he sent it to. He said that you would check his record at home and call me back the next day. To my suprise, He never called. I then send him some more email messages, he never reply again. (strang, when the deal was being made, he reply to every of my message, now that He got my memory, He won't even reply to me.) Now: I am still calling him, but he won't pick up the phone. I am also still emailing him, but he won't reply my mail. So if any one know this DANA WEICK, please contact him. he can be reach at: Dana Weick 4238 W Las Palmaritas Phoenix, AZ 85051 (602)925-6123 in the day time this is his business number. (602)842-2145 in the evenings this is his home number. his email address is: [email protected] *******This is our deal From [email protected] Wed Mar 17 20:09:20 1993 [my address] Great, you can send the SIMMS to me at: Dana Weick 4238 W Las Palmaritas Phoenix, AZ 85051 (602) 925-6123 (days) (602) 842-2145 (evenings) I would prefer US Mail, 2nd Day Priority (it only costs $2.90) The CPU is brand new, install it correctly (meaning don't plug it in backwards or bend any pins) and I'll warranty it for 6 months. Thanks ****ON 4/8 I SEND HIM AND SAID... that I got the cod payment. and asked if the cpu is sent out yet ****HE REPLIED.....ON 4/9 Glad the COD payment got to you OK, the CPU has been sent so keep your eyes out for it. Be *very* careful when you install it, be careful of static discharge, bending pins during insertion and above all make absolutely certain you plug the chip in the proper orientation. The chip was checked out prior to shipping and if you cook it by plugging it in backwards I won't be real sympathetic! If you don't know how to tell what orientation the chip should be installed, DON'T GUESS! ********************************DANA WEICK UPDATE:**************************** I call him sunday, his wife Debbie picked up the phone. She said that he was busy with his kids, and he would call me back in 10 minuets. Half an house went by, Weick didn't called. I called him again, and his phone was discon- nected. Since this post, I have numberous people who mail me saying that this DANA WEICK have ripped them off. We got do something about this guy. He has appearrently been doing this for a few years now. And he is getting away with it. --

I have done several of these upgrades (about 6 IIsi's, and 1 Quadra 700), and the best thing to use would be some sort of "heat sink compound". If possible, you should look for the silicon-free stuff. There's a comany who makes the stuff called Tech Spray, their address is: P.O. Box 949, Amarillo, TX 79105. You should be wary in using most kinds of tape; and definately don't use duct tape  that stuff is for ducts... When using the heat sink glue or compound, only use enough to fill the small space between the heat sink and the CPU. Mario Murphy

Yes, and one thing to think about is the pricing on the 160M harddrive configuration. When I got my lowly classic II, the options were 40 or 80M harddrives, and it was clear that buying another 40M of harddrive space would cost *much* more than the difference in price between the two config- uartions. There is an analogous break in the LCIII/80 and 160 prices, and you will not regret spending the extra money for a larger harddrive. Particularly if you ever wind up wanting to use SoftPC, which sets up a several-MB (up to 30!) partition, or if you are generating large files with DTP software, or if you might ever want to check out a mac unix-like os, like MachTen, having the extra space will be helpful. when you are pricing used IIci's, look at the harddrive size they come with, and how much it would cost you to add more storage down the road... (Might be a useful bargaining strategy even if you see no reason to go over 80M, though I must admit that I am such a packrat that within 6 months of getting my computer, I was backing up a lot of stuff to floppies that I rarely use to because I was running out of space, without having started using DTP stuff, softPC or trying any unix os!)

Not entirely true. A friend of mine was having trouble finishing the game GODS and asked me for help since he could not find a "trainer" (small patch that lets you play without losing lifes). The game is compressed but I did find *one* byte which when changed in the original *compressed* file would not affect the decompression and would also prevent the "shield" in the game from being tured off turning therefore making you invincible. There are many other progs whose copy protection was defeated one way or another and I have seen examples of this with my own eyes. The copy protection schemes defeated were various such as using protected mode, compressed executables, progs that load and execute other progs (possibly compressed), dongles, key disks, etc... I believe that persistence overcomes even the very best copy protection schemes.

For some time I've been thinking about the possiblity of starting a group where scientific articles can be published (or perhaps just summaries). Possible advantages would be: * Free disribution * Fast acceptance * Online discussion between authers and readers This would be possible with one group with a moderator for publishing the articles and one perhaps without for discussion. The best thing would be if all the articles would be in a standard format which would make it possible to print or view the documents camera ready. Perhaps Postscript or Rich Text Format? But how do you start a new group? Anyone interrested?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Laser holes are (or were) used to prevent someone from making exact copies of a disk. You do not want to write to the damaged disk, only read and use the programs. I remember a program called Copywrite that could copy a disk with a laser hole in it. I think it simulates the laser hole. After copying the disk the program is, if necessary, used in conjunction with a program called Nokey or something. (The program tells you which program to use) No solution.

There are several types of copy protection, and the point is to make sure the user is using a legitimate copy. The simplest and virtually fool-proof way is for the program to somehow fixate itself to the machine it was installed on (some sort of checksum, serial number, whatever) so a copy put on a different machine (NOT installed from original disks) will not work. The program is definitely backupable, if restored to the same machine (depends on the programmer... don't use a disk drive characteristic!) If the user did an upgrade to the machine, he/she should reinstall all programs any way. No document look-up, no disk wear-and-tear! I did not say that the originals would allow only one install. The user's conscience should do that. I know, I'll get flamed for this... But with the increasing number of "casual" users who either unknowingly or don't care about the software copyrights (It's the truth. I have "friends" who ask me for copies of my latest games all the time, and when I refused, they went after somebody else.), casual pirating is becoming more of a problem. Some sort of copy protection will discourage the casual copying. I've seen what some of my "friends" dug up somewhere... Latest and the greatest games, all cracked, WITHIN days of actual release! You know how many bytes you need to change in X-wing to disable the quiz? TWO! Yes, TWO! (And don't ask me which ones they are.) Determined pirates are unstoppable, given enough time, but their results do not spread that far, since pirate boards are not that well-known, and easily tracked once found by authorities. It is the "casual" pirates that the copy protection is determined to discourage. What I believe the companies should do is implement the above plus a special patch once the user registers that loudly exclaims upon bootup "REGISTERED TO XXXXX -- address, city, state zip" and disables the above. Two benefits: 1) encourages registration, 2) cuts down on pirating and makes it more traceable, because if the patch's registration message is encrypted, it will be quite hard to change, and therefore provides a stable trail of who allowed their copy out of their hands, and thus violated their license agreement. This way, the legitimate users who does not register will experience minimal discomfort (who does major upgrades to their computer frequently?) as only problem they have is they won't be able to restore to another computer. The registered users would have proven they are legitmate users and therefore gains full rights, and can restore to different machines. On the other hand, the software company now have a record of where THIS particular copy is supposed to be. If this user's copy was found to be somewhere it was not supposed to be, we know who has broken their license agreement. Of course, a hacker can break that eventually, but that's not the point, is it?

You shouldn't have ignored the ZyXEL. It can be purchased with a "Mac bundle", which includes a hardware-handshaking cable and FaxSTF software. The bundle adds between $35 and $60 to the price of the modem, depending on the supplier. It is true that the modem has no Mac-specific docs, but it doesn't require much 'tweaking' (aside from setting &D0 in the init string, to enable hardware handshaking). For more information on the ZyXEL, including sources, look at various files on sumex-aim.stanford.edu, in info-mac/report.

I have a 3 month old that seems to have acquired the jitters of late. The 14" Apple color monitor that I'm using with an LCIII sort of jiggles to the left and right all the time now. I have attempted to relocate the monitor to make sure the problem isn't interference from something else, but the problem seems to remain no matter what I do. Has anybody encountered this problem? Thanks,

Just saw an article in New Scientist; AT&T videophones won't talk to (?)BTI videophones. The AT&T ones use a 19.2kb modem, BTI uses 14.4kb. AT&T models have to communicate using all AT&T exchanges, whereas the BTI can route via most current exchanges. Suggestions include building standards converters into telephone exchanges - the mind boggles :)= . The BTI design is a bit more conservative and is better able to cope with current data compression hardware on long-distance lines. (not having the magazine to hand, I may have mis-remembered BTI. I think it is a British one made by GEC-Marconi, and currently selling to other countries). Yet Another Standards Screw-up.

FWB distributes HDT Personal Edition (HDT = Hard Drive Toolkit), which is what I own. This is less fancy than the "full" version, but good enough for what you and I want to do. Casa Blanca offers Drive7, but I'm not that familiar with it. I *think* that both Drive7 and HDT PE can be had for around US$50. I've used Silverlinging at work (v 5.42??), and I like HDT PE much better. IMHO it has a better interface, and easier to understand. Any Drive7 users?

To get their ham license, they had to pass a : government exam that tests them on that point, among others. : : However, you could be hearing a radio transmitter for sure - there are : lots of other services where the operators AREN'T required to be : technically competent - Citizens Band ("CB"), for example. There is nothing in the Amateur Radio Tests that requires an technical competence at all. It is a simple matter to memorize all the questions and answers. However, that said, most Hams that I know do spend quite a bit of time gaining some technical skill. : Listen to the interference.

If you can record a Don't count on that. : bit of it, you could take the tape over to a local ham operator's house : and ask him for his opinion of what you're hearing. Most communities You cannot do that legally. However, you can ask a ham over to listen. If the interference occurs at a specific time each day, then it would be possible to do such scheduling. If nothing else, you could invite the ham over to transmit from your driveway, to see if he interferes. If he does, then you probably need to have your equipment worked on to make it immune to rf interference. : have a ham radio interference committee whose members are most willing : to help you resolve interference complaints. Look in the phone book, or : ask at the local ham radio store, or call the FCC for contact info. The FCC may, or may not, have such information.

If companies compressed their executables with LZW andd did some kind of encryption in the process, this "change two bytes here" thing would go right out the window.

Well, almost NuBUS 90 anyway, comprehensive bus contention between processors is not supported in the current Macintoshes, could be wrong? However, I know for a fact from seeing the Cyclone Data Spec sheets myself, don't ask, Macintosh Cyclone models will provide full implementation of the NuBUS standard. Very interesting possibilities indeed!

Your source is wrong. The double speed CD300 is still slow compared to a typical hard disk. The LC can easily handle the SCSI transfer rate of the CD300. None of the current Macs, even the Quadras, support SCSI-2 unless you get a SCSI-2 Nubus Card. You don't have to have double speed to use PhotoCD. It's just faster reading images off of a disk. I think that the CD150 can handle PhotoCD, but only single session. The CD300 can do multisession PhotoCD.

Hi! My co-worker has just attached a magneto-optical drive to his mac. Works Great for him. However, he tried to turn on file sharing, but it wouldn't work. Had some message about "Not all volumes are shareable" ??? So - has anyone had success in sharing MOs? If so, please tell me how!

Howdy All! I have recently converted to Microsoft Visual C++. I no longer want my Borland C++ 3.1 w/Application Frameworks product. This version is about 6 months old. I have all of the manuals, disks (5.25"), etc. It is licensed to me but I will transfer the license to the purchaser under the accepted terms of the Borland license agreement. I also have a copy of the books: "Developing Windows Applications with Borland C++ 3", James McCord, Sams (39.95) "Using Borland C++ 3 2nd ed", Mark & Lee Atkinson", Que (29.95) I'd like to do is sell it all to the highest bidder under the conditions listed below. I'll ship C.O.D. to anywhere in the U.S. via the shipper of your choice (provided they are local to me), and I will pay the COD charges (you just pay for the shipping). The list price for the product is about $750. I have seen it advertised for as low as $500. I will accept the best offer over $375 (plus shipping as described above) which is 1/2 the list price, plus, I'm tossing in the 2 books listed above (which are a $70 value). I will hold the bidding open through the weekend and close it sometime in the evening of 4/26/93. Please reply via eMail. Only serious offers please apply. No, I will not consider anything for trade, nor any offers less then $375 as I consider it a fair price. Regards, Steve.

There are no MiniDocks with math coprocessors available right now and I am not aware of any in development. Demand appears low for such a device right now, but I'm sure some enterprising vendor would create one if there were sufficient demand. Lynn

I'm doing some work on the Mac IIsi and need some information on the CPU. I have the Motorola MC68030UM/AD Rev. 1, but I fear it is out of date as it does not have the characteristics for the CPU package type used in the IIsi. What I need is the Theta (JC) Thermal Characteristic (the Junction to Case thermal resistance) for the _PLASTIC_ FE style package. If you have this info, I would appreciate your sending it by email as postings suffer a few days delay here. If you are keen on this stuff, I am also interested in a more accurate value for the typical power dissipation. I'm assuming 2.25 Watts (using the 2.6 W maximum at 0 C decreased the way the Pd drops in the 6801x as Ta increases). If your manual has a chart of power dissipation, I'd like to know what it reads at 25 C and 40 C. Thanks for reading!

Hello. I have (4) SIMMS for sale. They are 1 megabyte each, and are of the 3-chip variety. These are very high quality SIMMS, and are nearly brand new. Best of all: they are ***60*** nanoseconds (the fastest available!) Please make an offer. I prefer to sell all four SIMMS to the same person (to lessen shipping costs), but if you just want one or two, please make an offer anyway. Thanks a lot: [email protected]

Here's the scoop: For the past two years, I have been using an SE/30 with a Sony 1304s and a Lapis video card. This past month, I bought a Quadra 800 and am now using the Sony on it. My SE/30 has been shipped home to my father who is planning on getting an Apple 14" monitor (The Trinitron one). My question is this: What kind of power cord will he get with the Apple monitor. Does it come with two types? As I recall, one can hook up the power cord of an apple monitor to the back of a machine such as my Quadra 800. However, for my father's SE/30, there is no extra plug which allows use of the SE/30's power supply. He needs to plug it into the socket separately. So...does the monitor come with a cable that will allow him to do this? Will have to buy a different cable? IF yes, where can he purchase such a cable? or apple kind enough to provide both types of cables? Thanks in advance, Derek ****************************************************************************** DEREK FONG * EMAIL: [email protected] Dept. of Physical Oceanography * [email protected]

I didn't say the program is DISABLED, did I? (I HATE!!!! it when people take my words out of context...) I mean that once you have installed it, you cannot DEinstall it without registering it, or transfer it to another machine, or SOME SORT OF LIMITATION (the author will decide), WHICH WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE PROGRAM IS REGISTERED.

The 9144w4 is the date code but none of my books list a W03563. What is it out of and can you tell us what kind of circuit it is in? In the odd case that 9144w4 is not the date code, NTE says a 9144-60 is an AM reciever subsystem and a 9144-61 is an FM subsystem, but these are both in 16 pin packages.

Hi Mac fans, I have some problems with my new Quadra 700. Several programs (Mathematica 2.1, AfterDark-Mandelbrot module) causes a systemcrash if the 040Cache is active. Do anyone have a list of programs which are compatible and which are not? Do anyone have some hints for the use of the Quadras perfomence?
