HELLO,Thanks for taking the time to
read this. Can you help?I have a Morley
Teletext unit. Unfortunately I need a
wiring diagram but cannot get one from
Morley themselves. If somebody owns one
or can advise on the wiring for the
circuit board I would be most
greatful. The circuit board can be
removed (one bolt/two self
tappers/sticky pad. under aerial input
box, just cut through, the circuit
board can be eased out). Four of my six
ribbon band wires have come away from
their soldered mounts (Area r5 on the
board).The unit is to be used with a
BBC Master.
If you can help contact

ps.Anyone who is a BBC master user
and has software that can be used
for French/Chess/or Music Database
please feel free to contact me.

In the beginning there was *THE* BBC
book for computers play, arranged by
Tim Hartnell, Mike James and S.M.Gee,
from which I typed in several games.
Eilas I could never ever play and
finish the first one - THE CRYPT OF
GABON, written by Ian Watt -, because
there isn't any difference between o
and 0 (zero).
... the trouble starts at
line 690, which says: M=0:N=0:O=0 and
from here I can't see what it should
be! Someone out there???
PLEASE, light your fire ....

Subject: Master Compact.
When I got my Master Compact, I had no
idea, no idea about the machine at
all. When reading in old Acorn Users I
discovered some articles from november
1986 till april 1987, which cleared a
lot. It seemed that the Compact did
not have a DFS fitted, just working on
ADFS, but on later welcome discs a DFS
was added. People like me without such
added DFS have to try other ones. You
need a DFS especially working on the
Master and when it does you can really
initialise it with CTRL + D + BREAK!
And by the way: software only working
on the Compact does work on the Master
either when you have the Sprite Rom
loaded, which can be found on the
Master Compact Welcome disc.
Does anyone have a Compact Welcome
Disc with DFS rom added onto it?

Subject: CD-rom for the Beeb
As you may know, it is possible to
connect a standard tape player via its
left and right audio outputs to the
beeb. So the same principle could be
used on a standard audio CD player.
You could then copy all of your tapes
onto the CD (this would cost about 15
pounds) with each track number being a
different file. You could then skip to
the file (track) that you wanted and
load it !!

Subject: Printing in Colour?
I have just got myself a Cannon
BJC-4000. It works O.K.but I don't
seem to be able to print in colour. I
have tried using the Printmaster Rom
and TBI-68 Screen Thief, but without
any joy.
Is it possible to print in colour with
a "B" or a Master 128?
Is there anyone out there who could
give me some advice?

If you refill the ink cartridge with
their ink, the savings can be huge!
