sample (05/04/83)
I went to the effort of constructing a cassette interface for the VIC-20 so that I could use regular tape recorders, using a schematic that appeared in BYTE a while back. I found that, at the prices our rip-off electronic supply stores charge, I paid as much for the interface and a cheap tape recorder as I would have for the Commodore Datasette. Also, I couldn't exchange programs with other VIC users that used the Datasette.
