Not without a little extra trickery. On the CoCo, Extended BASIC inserts a RAM hook for CHROUT that performs this "return to text mode", and you can work around it with POKE359,57 - POKEing 126 to return to normal behaviour. But because the Dragon has a combined Extended BASIC ROM, they felt no need...

Excellent news. I should be able to come, and though I'm not sure anything I have is terribly exciting, a table to put it on would be useful

Yes, though I think the dodgy scan is for a later revision as the errata has been rolled into it. This is a much nicer scan though.

But I think you're missing page 3?

It loads ok in XRoar, so a quick tape-rewrite gives this CAS file.

I've just compiled XRoar 1.10 on a M1 MacBook Pro. If I just start XRoar, it defaults to GTK+3 but that yields an empty window and no UI. Bit sad that there's GTK+ but presumably the GLArea stuff just doesn't work... It's not how I'd imagine it running under Mac OS, though you'd get better menus th...

https://www.6809.org.uk/xroar/ Fairly minimal changes since 1.9, but I'm hoping one of them will increase QoL for a lot of people: Some people have been complaining for a while that XRoar suffers sound drops, especially when minimised or even not the primary focus. I never saw this on my Linux X11 ...

64 ought to be enough for anyone!

Hah, lovely Bit like the boy a few Dragon meets ago that did as well as I'd ever done on Blockdown on his first go. It's not that we're old though, right?

That's a very odd result: when I measure continuity on an original Dragon 64, those two pins are definitely connected on the motherboard. So long as your carrier is connecting both through directly I can't see why your bodge wire would be needed. But at this point I'd just be arguing against reality!
