Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

Alastair is correct. Ok, so to be on the "safe" side I should have the motherboard field looking like this?: 16x16 Issue 1 16x16 Issue 2 16x16 Issue 3 16x16 Issue 4 16x16 Issue 5 16x16 Issue 6 Piggy Back Issue 1 Piggy Back Issue 2 Piggy Back Issue 3 Piggy Back Issue 4 Piggy Back Issue 5 Piggy Back ...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

I guess there are far fewer variations on the other "Dragon themes", but who knows. I'm still waiting to see if I can "lure" that '64 from my childhood friend..... I don't want to be too pushy... Well, I'm going away on holiday now, and won't come back until mid August. So we'll have to continue thi...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

With regards to the power board I don't think the modulator tells you the issue number. If you are prepared to remove the power board, you can also find the its issue number on the underneath of the board. (To help in the removal of the board press the on/off button in, though obviously don't have ...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

All, If I recall correctly, the 4 different RAM combinations do not directly map onto issue numbers.... Issue 5 is the most common and was available with at least 2 of the RAM combinations and maybe more. So it might be worth adding this as another field.... Simon is correct. Its very important to ...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

Hi, Could the other version you have be of Australian origin? The UK-sold Dragons are at least identical to the Scandinavian-sold Dragons, even if they use PAL I and PAL B/G, respectively. Audtralia is the only country using a PAL system that might be different on UHF channels. But I suppose you Br...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

My apologies for not reading the warning message properly. I would be wasting my time taking part in this because I will forget at some point to enter that email address in and be back at square one again. Just for you I have included a default entry in that field, so you will be OK as long as you ...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

Does your board look like any of mine? If I could put up photos of the various board versions, people could "report" the board version without the need for peeling off any stickers that may cover it. Vato Mine looks more like the lower photograph though the power connector is uncovered like the upp...

Re: Dragon survey, what to ask for?

Alastair wrote:I've just had another look at the survey page, the power board is marked "issue" not "mark." Perhaps in Dragon Data nomenclature they have a mark followed by an issue number, but I cannot recall seeing a mark number written on the board.

Alastair
Thanks, I'll change that!
