Video - Hamtext on the Commodore VIC-20

Post by rbernardo »

At the February FCUG meeting, we had quite a demonstration of the cartridge, Hamtext, for the Commodore VIC-20 computer. Hamtext and its accompanying interface can take the signal from a ham radio transceiver and show the results on the VIC-20's monitor. Those results can be the translation of Morse code signals to ASCII (alphabetic letters shown on the screen).

Well, I took a videocamera to the meeting and filmed a few minutes of the demo. That video is now on-line! Go to

and see a few minutes of the hardware used and what the monitor screen showed.

Truly,
