The CoCo III is listed in the 1989 Canadian Radio Shack catalogue along with its accessories so don't bury it too quickly. It is noteworthy that the Model IV has not been listed in Canada since about 1986 but it is still sold in the USA so the markets are not identical. We don't have the new Radio Shack 10 metre ham rig listed up hare either. Sigh. Since this is an article about old products (mostly) does any one know off hand if National Parts still has a print head for a Lineprinter III and what the price range is? And.... I got US National Parts to send me a photo copy of the TRS80 Model II technical manual but it didn't include the schematics or the manuals for oem stuff like the disc drives. Is this an oversight that I should complain about or normal behaviour? ********* 73 ********** Richard Loken VE6BSV . **** .. **** Athabasca University .... **** Athabasca, Alberta Canada ..........**** alberta!auvax
