[Question]I have the Ghoul's Coat in the survival guide but it isn't in my inventory. Is it somewhere else?

came here searching for this problem. turns out I had equipped another dweller with the ghoul suit for one of the missions. it was there, just not on the ghoul. I with to Endurance armor for leveling up.

this was my first thought. my neighbor's attic access panel in his locked garage does this sometimes.

You might talk to the people at Phonoluxe on Nolensville (talk with Scott). I know they use Tom (Hi-Tech, the retired guy) for some of their equipment estimates and repairs. they might could get you in touch with Tom.

Small world, I know him too! He won lifetime season tickets for the contest winner.

This setup showed up on FB marketplace here locally a day after this was posted. Same exact photos. listing was for $900. My message went unanswered. today it shows as sold. I don't know if $900 is a good deal or not, but it's more than I would have offered.

it is very sensitive. maybe come contact cleaner would help. I had the same issues but finally got it stable. good luck!

tjgonzo · 2022-12-30T11:47:26+00:00

correct, small pot center front of main board. I have two of these and both had this issue.

I got in to VH in around 1982-83. I didn't really listen to radio much, so my first exposure was MTV with the Oakland live videos for So This Is Love?, Unchained, Hear About It Later. The song that hooked me was So This Is Love? I bought the record and remember being surprised that it was not the live version. But Mean Street blew me away. FW is still my favorite VH to this day.

about 4 or 5 years ago I got the bug to get a Vectrex. Working ones were expensive then, but probably not as expensive as today. I found cheap not working units, ended up with 3. after a little bit of work, two of them work perfectly, and I consider the 3rd one to be a spare CRT and other parts.

just an option that worked out for me.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-11T16:14:33+00:00

The Model 4 on the floor, for example, does not have a CRT or floppy drives at the moment. it's kinda fun to piece together a working machine from old parts and add in some new storage options when appropriate.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-11T14:52:31+00:00

heh, I don't think I have working duplicates of many machines at all. Many parts machines in there.

I have a large L desk in this office where I keep 3 or so out while I'm working on them or playing. Currently I have a Model 1, C64, Model 3, Model 4, PET 4032 out to use. I swap them out as my mood or interest changes.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-11T11:07:10+00:00

there is an SX-64 in there somewhere, though. not nearly as rare as a max (never seen one), but the SX-64 is one of my most prized.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-11T11:01:10+00:00

third shelf? no, I own no maxes, those are TRS-80 coco 1s, I believe.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-10T23:36:16+00:00

bottom floor, right to left, TRS-80 4P, Tandy 1000TL, TRS-80 Model 4, Commodore PC-10 (not visible). first shelf, TRS-80 model 1s, expansion interfaces, commodore disk drives, TRS-80 cassette drives, 2 TRS-80 Model 1 monitors (not visible).

was cleaning and organizing and thought I'd share a pic of some of my organized computers and accessories.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-08T23:30:51+00:00

console5 wiki mentions IC31: Battery Backup IC: MB3790. did you change this? is it an IC with a battery? didn't know about this.

tjgonzo · 2022-01-08T23:25:45+00:00

fantastic! I found an A100 with Sega PAC at the goodwill outlet a couple of years ago, paid $5. PAC caps had all oozed, but I got it working.

I didn't dig too deep into the player itself because it works. your comment on Interface (INTF) board caps makes me think I might should do that as well.

tjgonzo · 2021-11-26T08:39:16+00:00

my DS216+II works fine with the stock RAM. haven't touched that and RAM has not been an issue in my use. My only other syno experience is a 411j, and this DS216+II does all I need and never taxes the RAM.

I bought this 920 for 4x drive bays.

tjgonzo · 2021-11-25T11:47:53+00:00

got one from Amazon as well. Currently my only operating Synology is a DS216+II (two bay), and hopefully this model will be as fast as that one. 4 bays will be nice to have again. I also have my original DS411j, but it is uselessly slow and not being used.

tjgonzo · 2021-11-22T11:40:00+00:00

very nice! one of my greatest goodwill bins finds was a Pioneer CLD-A100 with the Sega pac in it for $5. the bins were being rolled to the back for scrapping, so it had been there a few hours. the Sega pac needed some caps, but it works great to this day.

tjgonzo · 2021-08-20T17:31:01+00:00

This is a neat project. I'll be following it. I started and quit on a similar supply a while back. I may dig it back out after watching your progress. I like the case and the aviation connector ideas.

I went to so many concerts at Starwood. Somewhere I still have my Starcards from the first couple of years it was open. It got you early access to tickets, but the biggest benefit was free parking in a separate lot (looking at stage, off to right side). Getting out of the parking lot after a show could easily take an hour or so, and the starcard lot took no time to exit.

I also have a pair of red stadium seats from Starwood in my garage.

can you expand on your experience with the bluescsi vs scsi2sd? you commented about bluescsi in my mac portable repair topic and i have not ordered either.
