Slygon, a sysop friend of mine from my Facebook Image BBS group, came on CommodoreServer tonight to ask about the possibility of getting a high-speed RS232 interface so he could use his BBS on real hardware. (VICE can be awfully picky about emulated RS232 stuff, locking up randomly, and it lacks carrier detect logic to host an emulated BBS.) So that got me thinking, what would it take to make some SwiftLink clones? Our user group has two guys from "Dr. Evil Labs" that made these, maybe they've got schematics... It would teach me a lot about electronics to build some, and be helpful to my BBS buddies too! I'll ping kentsu about it.
