[net.ham-radio] MFJ-1224/C64 SOFTWARE PROBLEM

rcf@inuxd.UUCP (R Fitch) (05/03/84)

	For those of us who bought the MFJ-1224 RTTY/CW modem at
	Dayton, there seems to be a possible problem with the first
	RTTY program on the cassette. Mine wouldn't work and neither
	did the CW program.

	I called the MFJ technician (601/323-5869) to check out the 
	problem. He confirmed the following cable connections for
	the "C64":  RTTY(demod) pins L,B,C   GND pin N   CWID pin H
	RTTY pins J,M  CW KEY pin K.

	The CW program does not work unless you jumper RTTY(demod)
	to CW(demod). The RTTY may have a problem and is being re-
	written and will send a new copy to those who request it.
	"""NOTE""" THERE ARE "2" RTTY AND "2" CW PROGRAMS ON EACH
	SIDE OF THE CASSETTE.  TRY THE SECOND RTTY PROGRAM AND IT
	SHOULD WORK.

	I have not tested these fixes but if any of you are as
	frustrated as I was when I couldn't get it to work may
	want to try this info as it may be a while befor I can.
