IIRC, the DECtape file structure is documented in the Monitor Calls manual.
The disk file structure is not, though there are many references to
Retrieval Information Blocks (RIBs) and such.


Re: who collects modems?

2021-03-18 Thread Richard Milward via cctalk
If anyone has a modem made by Datec, a long-defunct manufacturer from 
Chapel Hill, NC, please let me know. I used to do customer support for 
them back in the early '80s. (They used to run ads in Byte Magazine 
touting their "crystal-controlled stability".)

Thanks.

Hi,
I think I've finally decided: yes.  :)
It looks like Fred C. might have one, so I will wait to hear from him.
thanks!

BAD NEWS.

Like the YEAR 2020, mostly failure.
The box of printers was not where I thought that it might be.
I'll look in a few more spots next week, but maybe you should grab Mike 
Stein's one.



However, I DID find humidors and cartridges!   ("expired")
If you give me your address, I can send them to you (maybe next week).

The humidors are not gasketed air tight, but they do close well (could add 
an o-ring to make them airtight?) and latch, and have latches for holding 
the cartridges and a rubber pad against the printing end of the cartridges.
The humidors can take two different kinds of cartridges (sideways or 
lengthwise), so they can be used for your Deskjet Portable cartridges 
and/or for the 500?/600? series cartridges:


Used humidor with 51633M empty cartridge
Used humidor with 51649A cartridge, labelled "8/97"
Used humidor with 51649A cartridge, labelled "8/97"
Used humidor with 51649A cartridge, labelled "no yellow"
Used humidor with 51649A cartridge, labelled "NG 8/97"
Unused? "Deskwriter C"? two cartridge storage container  (NO attempt at 
being airtight, has a tinted clear lid for holding two sizes of cartridge 
on the desk)


Unopened 51633A cartridge (Black,"Deskjet Portable, Deskjet 300J") June 1995
Unopened 51633A cartridge ("Deskjet Portable, Deskjet 300J") June 1995
Unopened 51633A cartridge ("Deskjet Portable, Deskjet 300J") June 1995
Unopened 51633A cartridge ("Deskjet Portable, Deskjet 300J") June 1995
Used empty? 51633A cartridge ("Deskjet Portable, Deskjet 300J") June 1995

Unopened 51649A cartridge (Color,Deskjet 600 series) Oct 1997

Unopened 51641A cartridge ("Deskjet 820,850,855,870,1000, Color copier 
110,120, Officejet 1150C") Feb 2002



I don't know what, if any, difference there is between the 51633A, 51633M 
cartridge and the other cartridges that fit the Deskjet portable.


I don't know the differences between the Deskjet Portable 300 VS Deskjet 
Portable 300C (color).  Probably a few more lines brought to the printhead 
for color control.  There weren't any Deskjet Portable COLOR cartridges in 
this box, and I don't remember whether any of my Deskjet Portables were 
color models.



If you give me your address, I can send them to you (maybe next week).
Let me know if you also want the non-Deskjet Portable cartridges, and/or, 
. . .

DOES ANYBODY ELSE WANT THEM??
