For that purpose, you can still use QIMSI Gold as standard QIMSI. Hi Peter, I usually use a Tetroid TDI Trump Card with CF Intetface d...

Re: QLTerminal v2.35 with TheOldNet WiFi v4

Hi Finally got the Simulant WiFi modem setup on the Q68. I configured the modem to connect at 9600 Baud. I used BAUD 9600 to set the serial port speed the same as the modem. Loaded up QTPI and dialled a couple of Internet BBSs: Retrocampus, Retrobbs all seemed to work okay. I downloaded a BBS list f...

Re: Advanced QL User Guide

Hi After some nice comments in the QL Assembler Magazine concerning the Advanced QL User Guide I have had no response from Adrian Dickens with regards to publication of his copyright book.
