I haven't seen anybody talk about the electrical engineering card that was suppose to be available several months ago. Is it available yet?? If so, how much, and what is on it? Thanks...... E-Mail to: jeffs@matt.ksu.ksu.edu JEFFS@KSUVM

According to Edu-CALC my EE application card went in the mail on Fri
May 10. If that is so, then I should get it next friday, a day before I
depart to go home for summer vacation. I will attempt to send a message
^^^^^^^
to the BITNET mail group HP-48 giving details about the card. This may
or may not happen since I will have access (after memorial day) to a
computer system that has a weak link to BITNET. However, unless anyone
knows of a way to mail a message to c.s.h via E-mail, there will be no
way for me to post something here. I could possibly attemp to mail
something to someone who could then post it for me. Send me a message
if you are interested in doing this.
Sincerely,
Jason P. Meyers

Well I finally got my EE application card :) However, it came right
AFTER my last EE exam for this term :(
As I promised, here is a quick description of the EE card.
The main menu has the following items:
Equation Library
AC Circuits
Fourier/Laplace Transforms
Ladder Network Analysis
Transmission Lines
Two-Port Networks
Constants Library
The Equation Library has 11 categories of equations.
The AC Circuits section has 9 categories.
The Fourier/Laplace Transforms are a table and they can be coppied to the
stack. The following are also available:
Pole/Zero Analysis
Fourier Coefficients
FFT
Inverse FFT
The Two-Port Network option gives the followin:
Circuit Performance
Paramter Conversions
Cascade Connections
Series Connections
Parallel Connections
Series-Parallel Connections
Parallel-Series Connections
The Constants Library has the following categories:
Universal Constants
Physical Constants
Silicon Properties
Magnetic Properties
In general the card seems to be rather nice. All of its functions are accessed
through a nice menu program. The font used in the menu program can be switched
between a small font and a large font at the press of a button. This is really
nice. The only problem that I have had with it so far is that it will not put
the two-port parameters on the stack when I as it to do so after calculating
the parameters. If anyone else has experienced this please let me know. I am
planning on contacting Sparcom about this *BUG*. And, yes it is a *BUG*
because it does NOT do what it is supposed to do!
I would like to thank everyone who voluntered to post this for me. As you
can see, I got the card before I left and was able to post my self. Thanks
Sincerely,
Jason P. Meyers
