Summary: Sorry about posting this!


Sorry about posting this to the net, but I don't have a UUCP path to Eric.

Eric,
Thanks for the info about using the bitbanger instead of the Program Pak,
Pete Lyall sent me some information about how to fix the RS-232 pak to work
with the COCO3.  I'm a little leary about making hardware changes though,
I'm pretty inept when it comes to using soldering irons and such (I must
have been asleep the day they handed out coordination).  I hadn't thought
about using the port on the back of the COCO.  I'll see if I can get that
cable, that may be the easiest solution.  If you didn't see Pete's posting
on how to make the IRQ for the COCO to RS232 Pak, let me know and I will
send you a copy of his instructions.

Thanks again for the information, I'll let you know how it goes.


Mike King
