I believe that Mike Douglas has a utility program that you can get into a Northstar Horizon, and then it can receive a .DSK image sent from the terminal and it will write the disk for you in the Horizon. It’s called PCtoFlop and I think he has it in his archive here: http://deramp.com/downloads

I’m glad to hear that you still have some possibilities there. I’ve go nothing on mine. I guess I’ll have to start looking for another RX-50 disk drive controller board. Since those are as scarce as the memory expansion boards, I’m not very hopeful. Guess it’ll be time to sell the parts on e
