The 8 bit search engine has it:

There is a version by Fairlight, but I am using the LETHAL version.


Zterm also works very well and has the same features as CCGMS.

(12-03-2016, 08:03 AM)Thanks! I don\t have any way to get it from the website to a floppy disk though. I don't have an SD drive for the C64. I guess it's an investment I'll have to make. admin Wrote: The 8 bit search engine has it:

RE: Garbage Characters & Final Cartridge III? - jxyzn - 04-12-2017

I get garbage at any baud rate with the Final Cartridge III inserted and active in my NTSC SX-64.

Is this expected? Any idea what the FC3 is doing to interfere?


RE: Garbage Characters - admin - 04-12-2017

I would guess this could be power related (faulty C64 power supply).  The FCIII cartridge does draw quite a bit of power.  I have never tried the FCIII with the WiModem (I use a U2+ in the cartridge port).  I will try it and see if this is perhaps a problem with the FCIII interfering with the serial port.


RE: Garbage Characters - admin - 04-12-2017

I tested the FCIII and it works fine at all baud rates I tested (1200, 2400, and 9600). So, I would look at your C64's power supply as being the issue.

Cool, thank you. Will look in to (how to do) that!
