Re: New Member, long time Dragon 32 owner

Hi Sorry for taking so long to get aroun...

Re: New Member, long time Dragon 32 owner
Your composite output actually doesn't look too bad for a Dragon. The MKII machines had a sharper image than the earlier models thanks to an improved circuit. Not sure what would cause the ghosting on the right, other than the video signal being too high and causing a bit of saturation somewhere. I...

Re: New Member, long time Dragon 32 owner
Hi. Couple of updates. The Dragon has been stripped, re-capped, cleaned and re-assembled. IMG_0746.JPG IMG_0777.JPG IMG_0781.JPEG The Logo I printed myself in lieu of getting a nice replacement.

I get flickering on both and a weird shifting of the screen on composite. The TV appears to switch from PAL to SECAM wh...

Re: Upgraded Dragon32 ram test software
HI. I read your post via Reddit the other day, it was really interesting, I proposed the idea of sticking a MeanWell inside the Dragon case. A nice idea but I fear a lot of modification would be required.
Thanks again for sharing.

Re: New Member, long time Dragon 32 owner
Regarding means to load software, you can take a look at the CASduino if you want to load tape images, or the DragonMMC, CoCoSDC or Drivewire, if you want to load tape/disk/rom images, either from a SD card or from a modern computer. I didn't know there was an MMC reader for the Dragon! I'll check ...
