Hamfest 2001
Images taken with a small little piece of crud camera. They're a bit contrasty. The images of stuff i've bought were taken on my front lawn on a towel. The items were purchased at the hamfest... although not the Moog. I just got it back today and took the pictures of it along with everything else.

I'm not sure why this number seemed siginifcant to me, but it did. (192638) |
|
An ingenious use of Macintosh IIci cases... it's a shame, really. those were nice machines... Oh well. |
|
An Apple-III looking Hewlett-Packard PC that the previous owner decided to name "Flynn" apparantly. (In the movie Tron, Flynn had an Apple III, perhaps that's where the name came from for this beastie?) |
|
My Moog Opus 3. I finally got it back from Friar. ;) It will soon be lent out to JennyLee. It's a fun little machine (analog polyphonic synthesizer.) (no.. this wasn't at the hamfest, but i took the pictures today...) [ .2. .3. ] |
|
Epson PX 8 with Multi Unit 64 Bought this one today. I saw it last year (probably by the same guy) for $40, but i got it from him for $15 along with the following IXO thingy. I've wanted one of these ever since i first saw it in the DAK catalog. (remember that catalog? :D |
|
Lid closed up. |
|
Dig that retro microcassette drive! :D |
|
IXO TC-200 Some sort of acoustically-coupled modem/TTY thingy. It needs a Polaroid lithium battery pack, which i'll eventually get from somewhere. The battery compartment of the Coupler was loaded with AA batteries that had exploded years ago. *sigh* |
|
Laser PC3 Apparantly made to be a companion to a desktop machine. It has all sorts of word processing and organizer tools... similar in function to a Tandy 100, but with a much smaller screen. ($15) |
|
Printer for a Sharp PC-1211 A printer for my Sharp PC-1211 (AKA TRS-80 Pocket Computer 1). It's probably not working (no ribbon or paper either), but it's nice to have anyway. (shown with the PC-1211 installed) ($2) |
|
Tandy/TRS-80 Pocket Computer 3 (with printer/cassette interface) I figure, I should try to get all of the Pocket Computers, since i'm on a roll here. hehe. This works pretty well, although I've not tried the printer yet. ($35 with the Sinclair below) |
|
PC-3 removed from the printer/cassette interface. |
|
Sinclair ZX81 Yay! A wonderful little Z-80 powered doorwedge that works! Cute little box, eh? They were $50 when new, and you can get kits for them now for $99. This was a steal at $35 with the above PC-3. :D (although i think this one is PAL, rather than NTSC... oops.) [ .2. ] |
