Re: QL Is 30

I have already made some suggestions and contacted a few people who may be able to provide talks - I think that it should not be an event run by Quanta, but one sponsored by Quanta. It makes sense to hold it as part of another wider event too - I would like it to be a "Sinclair Celebration Even...

Re: Looking for a QL serial cable

I have several if you need one (presuming you mean from the BT style serial ports on a QL) - I have 25 pin and 9 pin cables - £5 plus postage.

Re: QL Show 13th / 14th April 2013

A Quanta committee member would not have to do that much actually - apart from dealing with forum members who want access to the Quanta area (ie validate their membership with Quanta, then grant them the necessary permissions on the forum). A check would then need to be made once per year to see if ...

Re: CTL plug type

I guess this should be the correct one: http://uk.farnell.com/pro-signal/a136/plug-631a-6way/dp/916535 "Until stocks exhausted".... Tobias Those are the right hand ones (for serial ports) - the left hand ones are: http://uk.farnell.com/pro-signal/a172/plug-630a-6way/dp/916559 We will see ...

Re: CTL plug type

Unfortunately, these are extremely hard to find. The correct ones were listed a short while back on sellmyretro.com - see: http://www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/2650 Alas, I just happened to come across those two. The Serial Ports use the BT 630W connector, but I don't know the part number for th...

Re: QL Show 13th / 14th April 2013

Skype worked OK with a couple of small glitches - I don't have a webcam, so it was only audio only from me - may be a good idea to cut down on bandwidth requirements over mobile internet anyway! As for having one computer for each person attending virtually - you need to look at Group Call – can lin...

Re: QL Show 13th / 14th April 2013

I have used Skype today to speak with some people at the show - will be joining the AGM later via Skype to have my vote and say. I spoke to them again about the dedicated section of the QL Forum for Quanta members to make it easier to access the library and probably the magazine online for members -...

Microdeal Flight Simulator Manuals

I have uploaded the Microdeal Flight Simulator Keyboard Reference Guide to my website: http://www.rwapsoftware.co.uk/DOC/Microdeal_Flight_Simulator_Keyboard_Ref.gif However, I only have a very poor quality one where a lot of the information is either too faded or worn off - does anyone have a better...

QL Show 13th / 14th April 2013

Can someone please upload some directions and information about the show this coming weekend - or is everyone supposed to guess where it is? :)
