#Final List?
13 messages in this thread
Has anyone heard from Jack Radigan re JRComm? I tried calling his BBS
last week and I got a recording but couldn't here what it said.
In any case, I'm looking for a copy of `The Final List' or at least a
list of Amiga BBS's in Florida and in particular, the 813 area code.
Anyone?

I sent him Email asking questions about the next release of JRComm. He
answered about a couple of weeks later. He is on Compuserve.

Thanks, Richard. Jack left me a reply.

Skip,
The recording says that the number has been changed to 609-398-7453.

Jack,
Ohhhhh.<embarressed><G>. I only heard that it was a phone company
recording and so many times it's been that the lines no longer in use. Not
yours. BBS's in general.
Thanks for the info.

Well I don't have the Final List but I do live in Tampa, Fl. (813) but I
only call a few BBSs around here but I will list a few:
Simply Amazing 977-3940
TBAG 889-9465
Bitter Reality 254-7493
There are more but these are the only ones I have available right now. If
you need any more just let me know.
Anthony,
Thanks very much. At least with the same area-code, they will be
cheaper to call. I've been calling one in Ft.Lauderdale, I believe, and it
claims to be the best Amiga board in FL. I don't like it at all. He's
using Binkly-Term on a clone and it's very difficult to get the hang of
and I don't like being `tutored' while paying GTE's long distance
charges<g>.
I'll try these. I completely forgot about TBAG. I had one of their
disks a long time ago. Do they still meet?

I haven't called any LD BBSs in Fl., all my LD is out of state.
Yes TBAG BBS is up and running and has been for quite a few years now, I
don't like the software he is running though, C-NET I believe.
They still have their meetings at Jefferson High School. If you are
interested in Graphics there is a User-Group called G-SIG that meets at
the Amazing Computer store on Fletcher av. and we deals with every
Graphics application around, from D-Paint to LightWave.
I assume you live in or near Tampa? If you can drop by the next G-SIG
meeting which are held the 3rd Saturday of the month at 12:30 pm.
Anthony
I live in Sarasota but might try to attend a meeting some day.

Do you go to the User Group in Sarasota? I have been to the Amiga
Store on University and was told about it but haven't gone yet, what
kind of interests are most common there? Is there a strong Graphics
(2D + 3D) support?
For a living I deliver medical supplies to hospitals and every Tuesday I
go down to Sarasota.
Anthony,
I havn't been to a user group meeting yet. Right after I arrived here,
I visited that store. They told me about the users group and that it was
on very shakey ground. Apparently, according to the store owner, the group
let it be taken over by some `kids' and the results weren't what they
expected. I havn't talked to him since so maybe I'll stop by some day and
find out the date of the next meeting. They meet in a Barnett bank over on
Siesta Key and it's only about 3 miles from me.
The store owner also put me in contact with a programmer in Port
Charlotte. He wants me to illustrate a game for him. I agreed to do it but
my last ventures into that type of work didn't do too well<g>. He's the
guy that did my little Cool-Fills demo.

Jack has a new number for his BBS: 1-609-398-7453. The next Step Up from
1.02a is still in beta, but slowly getting closer to release.
. . . . JimDoc, on AutoPilot
Thanks, Jim.
