Somebody in Hungary auctions an original German floppy controller with a 3.5 inch disk unit.

Curiously he tests the unit with a number labelled EP128:

 

It was only politics. On that era new hard laws of "germanization" of the computers were introduced. On Spain happened similar.

Is for that they added a low quality paper sticker over the stock plastic one....  They changed "ONE TWO EIGHT" by a big "128K".

Numbers aren't dependant on languages.

If I had found this offer 2 years ago... I would not have been so daring and I would have learned less....

Board on ebay frim the Russian Federation - not a bad price:

In Hungary, you got full configuration for  30 £ more.

ENTERPRISE 128 big pakk

Ask how much the delivery from Hungary, sometimes the total expenses are not worth it.

Thanks Judge!

I got delivery for 25UK Pounds - which I was happy with at the end of the day.

That'll make 2 EP 128's and 1 EP 64 in my collection (and I think I have another EP128 and EP64 in my loft somewhere!) and one board which I am fixing up - just need that coil (113CNK1881) from Zozo when he gets them - he got the last 3!

Can't now find any of those coils on the web - I wish I knew what the coil was - inductance wise - may be able to find a replacement that will work..

Is there a parts list document anywhere that lists the parts and values of the EP components that you know of?

Also - I got the modulator from you (posted my your daughter - please pass on my thanks to her!) and soildered it in - works a treat!

Will look better when I get that coil in though!

Thanks again,

Mark.

Cheers Zozo - have emailed a company in the UK that specialises in finding old varibale inductors (epecially Toko).  We'll see what they come back with.

Any update on the price for the Ram upgrade / EXOS ROM and have your coils appeared yet?

Just a genltle nudge!

Mark.
