Title Description Computers
"Type" Word Processing Program Here’s another nice program from Bob, and is a ‘must’ for those of you needing a ‘word processor’ on a shoestring budget. The program was used to create the article, so you can actually see what it does. Timex/Sinclair 1000
AMSAT AMS-81 Tracking System The AMSAT AMS-81 TRACKING SYSTEM (software version) is ready for distribution. AMS-81 provides accurate access schedule and tracking information for satellites in PHASE II and PHASE Ill type orbits. Hardware requirements include only the SINCLAIR ZX-81 or TIMEX/SINCLAIR TS-1000 with 16K RAM, video display and cassette recorder. Timex/Sinclair 1000
Bits & Bytes This column will try to track and document the quirks, fixes, and unique modifications done to the Sinclair computers. Let’s hear from you. Timex/Sinclair 1000
Digitalker Speech Synthesizer Following is a ‘term paper’ written by one of my students who tackled the job of interfacing the National Digitalker chip set to his TSI000. It really sounded nice. I hope the article is easily readable, the original was pretty faint. (I gave him an A for the project anyway.) Timex/Sinclair 1000
Feedhorn Design Program If you are into feedhorn design here’s a nice program (with screen dump) . Timex/Sinclair 1000

QZX Net Info Taking a gamble that everyone shifted one hour as a result of Daylight Savings Time, I moved the net times one hour. Hope its ok.
Simple Mods for ZXAS & ZXDB The BUG-BYTE ZXAS assembler and ZXDB disassembler/debugger comprise a fairly powerful machine level programming package. In this article I will describe a few simple modifications to the BASIC portion of each program which will make them all little more convenient to use. I will also describe memory usage of the two packages and show you Timex/Sinclair 1000
Size-Accuracy-Speed I did finally find time to get a hard copy of working versions of my 3 sort routines. I haven’t had time to work on them lately and hope to do so while ‘vacationing’ in N.C; Perhaps some of you ‘novices’ (beginners) want to tackle them try to improve their size or speed.
