Well, the gremlins struck. No problem, the fixes are easy.
PROBLEM 1:
Modem parameters are not being saved when they should be.
EVERYONE SHOULD APPLY THIS PATCH IF THEY SAVE PARAMETERS.
FIX:
Load the basic program "HELLO" from the DCOM disk. (This
program controls the startup and exit from the machine
language terminal.)
Type the following. ("]" is your prompt character)
]LOAD HELLO
]850 PRINT CHR$ (4)"BSAVE "F$(6)".D,A$4012,L13"
]SAVE HELLO
PROBLEM 2:
VIDEX 80 column card "gets sea-sick and monitor emits 21KHz
whine". This is due to a hardware change in some videx
cards. ONLY APPLY THIS PATCH IF YOU USE A VIDEX CARD. THIS
PATCH MAKES THE EMULATOR HARDWARE SPECIFIC.
FIX:
]LOAD HELLO
]730 PR#3:PR#0:IN#0:CALL 8195:REM VIDEX CARDOWNERS ONLY!
]SAVE HELLO
Note that what was "CALL 8192" is now "CALL 8195".

AN ORDER!

Have fun, and as you have been doing, let me know if something pops up.
AND most of all, thanks for YOUR help in tracking down these bugs.
