Atari 1050
Hi
Tried the XC12 cassette player with the Atari but whilst I could get rewind
I couldn't get fast forward or play. Opened up and the rubber band is like
so loose. rewind stretches and so activates the pulley wheel. If if press on
the band whilst in fast forward I can get the pulley to activate. Play won't
work but then may need a signal from the computer or ' CLOAD' in
Atari-speak. Anyway, as ever, Ebay saved the day and for a most £3.50 was
able to get a replacement belt. See how I get on.
I have set up a little TV zone for machines that use the TV and so far I
have the Atari 2600 [ for River Raid ]

I also have the ZX81 on tap but not set up all the time.
I now can play quite a selection of games. I like cartridges like MsPacMan,
Centipede, Crystal Caverns [ thinks its called ] and the classic Space
Invaders.
Going now
