Dominique, I just want to say how impressed I am with your work here, as well as the way you're documenting it. This is fantastic stuff!
There's a lot of emails on this thread for me to catch up on from the past month. But if I have one request, it's that you post any additional pics you might have on the Entrex terminal. This is what has really drawn me into this chapter of your project. Keep up the great work! -AJ http://Entrex480.blogspot.com (badly in need of updating) http://Point4iris.com On Sat, Aug 19, 2017 at 12:50 PM, Curious Marc via cctalk < cctalk@classiccmp.org> wrote: > A straightforward linear supply.
