There was one in the AMSAT journal of that era as well (by Tom \nClark W3IWI I seem to recall). I spent much time typing in and debugging \nthat program on a several different platforms including the Commodore \nPET, Radio Shack TRS80 and my Heathkit H8 and H11. I no longer have a \nHP41CX but I do have several TI calculators including the TI84+ and \nNSPIRE(s) and a HP48G. The TI84+ and the TI83+ it replaced are \nprogrammable in a dialect of BASIC and can interface with through a \nsimple port and have more processing power and ram that those old 8 bit \ncomputers that I mentioned above. Now you've got me thinking that I \nshould give something like a try too.\n\nGood luck with your project.\n\ncheers, Graham ve3gtc\n\n\n\n\n\nOn 2016-02-07 15:05, Todd W.

This will not advance the state of the art in space communication but the fact that I can command my arduino antenna rotor project from my 1983 calculator over an IL loop while recording the contacts on a old reel-to-reel would satisfy my hidden luddite tendencies.\n>\n> Todd\n>\n> _______________________________________________\n> Sent via [email protected].
