Quanta private area?

I understand from reading the most recent Quanta magazine that there is a private area for confirmed Quanta members, that some one(s) able to confirm membership, and that it's there for use.

Who's the person I need to ask for access to the private area?

Can this post be moved to the Quanta section? :)

QL is 30 pledge sign-up. £430 so far

This is a duplicate of the pledge I made at ql-users@q-v-d.com. If anyone pledges here, please also do so there as that will be the master list. I copied this here so people here who are NOT on the list could also pledge. If you do not want to be on that mailing list, I will tally your pledge there...

Re: Unknown QL PSU

The output of the transformer is 15.6v, the board rectifies and smooths that to 9v DC - then both are passed through to the computer.

Re: Seen on eBay

Sounds reasonable. Also, well explained, brilliantly argued and respectfully stated.

Well done Sir!

I have changed my view. :)

Re: SDHC adaptors...

I was asking about dual SD card slots because I imagine it will always be desirable to duplicate SD cards. They are 99% reliable, but not 100%.

Re: Solved: QL psu cord

If you're building a whole new PSU, things get interesting. The QL on-board power regulation was never the best, but it's now approaching 30 years old. You can safely feed >13.5v DC into the 15.6v AC line and it will work just fine. As soon as it hits the bridge rectifier inside, it's all the same.

Re: SDHC adaptors...

I am enthused by your progress. Your EPROM contains Minerva and the SDHC driver. It invalidates the ROM port. Does the EPROM contain TK2 also? If not, can you include TK2 so people can load it? I think most people would be lost without TK2. Also, the interface provides support for one SDHC card, as ...
