Subject: Access to INFO-CPM@AMSAA & North Star Formats
Hello,
I am LT John Rossi III <ROSSI@NUSC.ARPA>. I have been reviewing some
of the archives from SIMTEL20 and I was somehow lead to believe that AMSAA
is a clearinghouse for info on CP/M systems. I have tried to access AMSAA
by way of FTP and TELNET and have found that there is no ANONYMOUS access.
Question
#1 - Are ytou an interactive clearinghouse ?.
Independent of direct access to AMSAA, I would like to know if you could
point me in the direction of a place where I can obtain a version of the MODEMx
program in Northstar DS/DD (360K) format. I am currently conducting experimentsat
U.S. Navy Subbase,NLON, NSMRL and I would like to use my old standby N*
controller based kluged computer to handle some of the data. My communications
ports are by old CompuPro Interfacer I boards so I need sufficient documentationalong
with the program so that I asn patch the appropriate linklages to my user
area. I need the modem program for communication with a VAX-750 which will be
handling most of the data. Since N* is a hard sectored format, I realize that
I have two options, type in source code, or find someone who can supply
machine readable media. I would prefer the later and would be more than
happy to
pay for the service of obtaining the software and documentation I need to get
this project moving. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank You,
John Rossi III
P.S. I am still new to this network game so If you could, please acknowledge
