Greetings!

I do my BBSing mainly on my Tandy 1000 TX or TL/2. I have a serial card with a 16550 UART, but I cannot locate the jumper on the TX motherboard (have not looked for on TL/2). I searched for schematics but must've been looking in the wrong places. All I found was an illegible diagram. Anyone have any personal experience with this?

... I tried to contain myself, but I escaped.

Nick Andre (1:229/426), who's a good friend of mine and a Tandy nerd, has a Tandy 1000. I don't know if he participates in this echo, but netmail him and see if he can help. He's a huge Tandy fan.

I reached him. Thanks!

Then yeah,I suppose I will be running into you then!

You're a CoCo fan I see? Though my first computer ws a Timex Sinclair, I really cut my computing teeth on a CoCo2 I got for my fifth birthday in 1986. I still have one I believe to be new in box, and I have a CoCo 3 setup in my living room. I want to do more CoCo stuff.

Yes but my CoCo 2 was stolen in 1991 and I haven't had one since. I do use
the ovcc emulator for fun.

I started to cut my teeth programming on the CoCo 2. I later acquired a C64 that I went to town on. In 1987, I learned USCD Pascal on a TRS-80 Model III (what my high school had at the time) and I still use Pacal today though I
am leanring C.

All these years later, that still upsets me. When I was growing up, we were poor and my parents really had to scrape up to come up with $300 back in 1984 to
buy me the CoCo 2. I like my PCs but there was something special about the myriad of home computer models back then. I remember the massive "home computing" aisle at Toys 'R Us back then. I also remember how and all of my fledgling nerdy friends and I always discussed at school why we loved our particular computer the best. We just didn't know how good we had it back then.

Fun fact: I was a Mac nerd long before I became a PC fan.
