On my WB2.04 install disk was a drawer labelled a2232. In it was a copy of oldser.device and serial.device. According to the install manual this was the updated serial devices for use with the a2232. Steve
Its the 2.04 driver I'm using. It came on my 2.04 install disks. Has anybody approached Commodore with the problem. I'm sure my dealer isn't going to be happy when I bring the board back to him. Steve
I wish I could get the dual serial board but this was a gift and I'd like to try and get it to work. Do you know the latest release date of the 2232 driver. Mine came with the Wb2.04 install disks and I assume it should be the latest.…
#A2232 problems.
Message #44725
Could anyone help me with troubles I'm having with the A2232 serial port board? I'm using the KA9Q TCP/IP package which allows you to access serial ports with an attach command. It allows me to use serial.device unit #2 for the first extra serial port. I must also set a…
#a2232 & NOS problem.
Message #44536
Can anyone help me with the A2232 and AmigaNOS (v2.7 G1YYH). I can use the built in Amiga port as serial.device unit 0 without any problems but when I hook up another TNC and use serial.device unit 2 the tnc refuses to send its data until 567 bytes have arrived.…
I've taken a look at the fuses. The only fuse visible for the mouse and joystick ports is the one on the +5v line. The rest of the lines seem to have a 3-lead device which I guess is a combination of the capacitor/ fuse they show in the schematic.…
I have stripped the computer down to its motherboard and have found the bank of fuses. What I want to know is which fuse could be causing the trouble? If both the modem and joystick use the +5v line for positioning the pointer then thats the likely fuse. If they…
Blown Mouse Port
Message #41130
Can anyone help me with a blown mouse port. My girlfriend plugged in the trackball and after that I had no mouse control or joystick control. The mouse buttons and joystick buttons still function but the pointer won't move. The last time this happened the service tech said he replaced…
WB2.0 and AmigaNOS ?
Message #40920
Can anyone tell me if AmigaNOS G1YYH v2.7 is compatible with WB2.0. I've ordered the upgrade ROMS for 2.04 and am hoping it is. Tnx Steve
Thanks Bill, it sure looks like most of the work being done on the Amiga version of NOS are coming out of Europe. Too bad not to many local's are doing the mod's Steve
#AmigaNOS v2.8
Message #37737
Can anyone tell me what the new features of AmigaNOS G1YYH v2.8 are? I've got v2.7 and am just wondering what changed. If the new version is worth upgrading to, perhaps someone could upload it? Tnx, Steve
Hi Bill, my system seems to crash quite regularily when I run v2.7. I don't think its my system acting up since I run a BBS online and it seems to run fine without any crashes. What kind of mods are you making to the code? There are a few…
Bug in AmigaNos v2.7?
Message #30919
Has anyone had any trouble using G1YYH's v2.7 AMigaNos program? Mine seems to crash regularily when someone does a NETROM connect to it. It starts sending endless streams of ax.25 and netrom beacons. Luckily the PTT line isn't keyed so the beacons aren't going out over the air. When this…
Thanks Rob, I'll look into it. Steve
#Amiga BBS Programs?
Message #17860
Can anyone recommend a good bbs program that allows the choice of the serial driver. I run a Supramodem 2400zi internal that uses modem0.device instead of serial.device. What BBS programs do you like the look of? Are there any special features of a BBS that you like? I'm starting up…
I'm now looking for a new BBS program but Elite is still running for now for lack of a better program. Steve
I finally got mine working. I let a few users logon (approx. 3) then attempted to edit the list. Everything worked ok after that. Now, if I could only get the uploading and downloading to work. People attempting to upload get a "could not locate file" message and then are…
Elite seems to work with my Supramodem 2400zi ok. It answers the phone ok. The only problem I have now is in the upload and download areas. When a user tries to downla [Doad, the modem hangs up on them. I'm not sure its the BBS's problem. I've been testing…
I too have been having problems but of a different sort. I can't validatny users. If I select the edit user choice and enter user number 1, the system will display the data but won't accept anything after that. The keyboard is locked up and I have to reset the…
G1YYH NOS ?
Message #16499
Can anyone tell me what the file "forward.bbs" is used for in the G1YYH versions of KA9Q NOS? Thanks, Steve
I tried the Citadel BBS and one other whos name escapes me. I tried to change NCOMM without any luck either. Steve
Thanks for the info. Finally, my BBS should be running ! Steve
Could you upload v2.6 if its not much trouble Bill. I took a look and I don't have the ls program. Perhaps for a quick fix you could upload that. Thanks in advance, Steve
I've tried that with a few programs but so far no success. The utility was supplied with the modem. It reports all occurences of serial.device with modem0.device but on running the program my system crashes! Steve
Elite BBS
Message #16143
I noticed you uploaded a BBS program. Could you tell me if it supports an internal modem using a diferrent device driver such as modem0.device. I'm looking for a BBS that I can run off of my internal modem. Tnx. in advance. Steve 70531,1167
#Amiga BBS Software?
Message #16142
I'm looking for a shareware BBS program that allows the selection of a different device driver other than serial.device. I have a Supra internal modem that uses modem0.device as a driver. Thanks, Steve
#Amiganos Help
Message #16141
Can anyone help me with V1.9 G1YYH NOS? I can't get it to list my files in the ax.25 mailbox or during an ftp session. I have assigned tcpip: to dh0:tcpip but the system still won't list files. I can get files ok but any attempt to list them gives…
Amiga NOS
Message #10636
Has anybody had troubles with the "w " command or ftp sessions not listing files or directories? If I use the w command, no files are listed. The same is the case for ftp sessions. I'm running v1.9 G1YYH NOS and I had no problems with the WA3YMH software. Steve
Amiga PCAnywhere?
Message #8481
Does anyone know of a PCAnywhere type program for the Amiga? Either pd, shareware or commercial would be fine. It would also have to have some way of selecting the modem driver from the program as I run an internal modem. Thanks, Steve
HELLO BILL, I HAVE RUN INTO THAT PROBLEM AS WELL. THE MACHINE JUST DIES WHEN IT CAN'T FIND THE .TXT FILE. I USUALLY LEAVE 1 MESSAGE IN THE FILE JUST SO THE FILE EXISTS. YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY A HEADER LINE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE FILES SUCH AS:…

TCP/IP??
Message #4665
Look for an upload a little later from me Bill. It explains the NETROm support. Thats if u want to use netrom for connects. If I read ur message right though ur wondering about attaching a TNC running NETROM firmware. I haven't tried that yet but the NETROM code inside…
Thanks, Bill I thought I'd give it a try. I'd also like to try putting my internal modem into auto-answer and calling the Amiga with another computer running NET. I'll have to wait until I get the IBM (yuck) version of NOS and try it from work. Steve

Hello to everybody, looks like there are quite a few of us out there using Ami's for Radio. I checked my Amigan Beacon collection and I don't have anything past #6. My version of NOS is 890830. If Al could upload his version I'd appreciate it. My CBBS is Version…
#RTTY & CW progs.
Message #808
Hi Rob, I don't know of any special software for the Ami. Probably any software that runs on the IBM will run on the Bridgeboard. I don't know the particulars of the software but there are some pretty gud packages out there. I live in Wasaga Beach, but I work…
#SSTV
Message #806
Hi Kelly, I don't do any SSTV with my Ami. I primarily use mine for packet (TCP/IP). I only have an old FT-101E and I don't think its good enough for SSTV. Do u do any packet with your Ami? I can be reached at VE3IRI-1 in Penetang. 73's Steve…
