Re: QLers meeting in Switzerland 2011 - Coffee, cake and mor

I think you forgot to issue a QM_GO command after loading the driver. This is essential, as you don't have a superHermes on that machine. QM_GO starts the Queue Manager, which is needed for all QL hardware that uses the unmodified QDOS serial driver. In Today's coffee hour I gave it another go, QM_...

QLers meeting in Switzerland 2011 - Coffee, cake and more...

Hi all, it all started earlier this month with an invitation for coffee and cake in my offices. Yesterday afternoon some of the Swiss QL fellows met. There was even a South German QLer who joined the party. It was not only about coffee and cake (even we enjoyed that). We found the time to do some QL...

Re: Missing issue of QL World magazine

Why not ask to put a small "wanted" ad in QL Today or Quanta mags, and on ql-users mailing list in case anyone reading them has a spare copy? I've received the magazine yesterday from my Swiss fellow Markus Dettwiler. More on that in a new thread. I do have a (I hope!) complete set of the...

Re: Shielding a QL, issues and questions.

European (German) Samsung QLs were sprayed inside with metal silver color, and there were small metal plates grounded on the main board with contact to the inner side of the case. Here are some links to pictures of Samsung made QL's: https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=c250d8748980ce5a&sc=photos#!/?...

The second one is the May issue as can be seen from the barcode add-on (05).

Many thanks for digging them out. Good to know that there’s a November 1990 issue. Bad to learn that I’ve lost it over the years. Anybody has a spare copy of it for me?

Missing issue of QL World magazine

Recently I was going through my collection of Sinclair QL User/World magazines. I miss the November 1990 magazine. As there was a layout change around then (see PIC of October and December issue using link below), I wonder if there was no November magazine. https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=c250d874898...

So, if I subscribe tomorrow I'll get the first issue of vol 16 and the DVD, despite it already has been sent out?

Enjoy the sunday, Urs
