How about this one:

Just a simple search got this result.? Did the .fake site generate enough for this plus shipping?

Hello Daniel

?

This is a philosophical point.?

?

Naturally we don't "need" a VT220 terminal. Any terminal emulator does the job.?

?

But "Need" and "Want" are not necessarily the same thing. Every single one of us here must be familiar with this concept. Almost everything we do with amateur radio is unnecessary. We do it because we find it cool, we enjoy it, it's interesting, we learn from it and it makes us happy. The exact details vary from one of us to the next.?


That's how it is for me, and the real VT220.?

I'm not sure of the seriousness of the need for VT220 monitor, but cannot serial port software emulation of the VT220 accomplish the necessary if needed?

I cut computing teeth on the VAX line of computers, and used both hardware and software VT100/VT220 over the years (even the old HyperTerm provided with early Windows worked sufficiently).? PuTTY also offers emulation.

Hi all,

for those who are as eager as me to get an extra serial monitoring port for the QDX in a future firmware release, here is all my humble technological knowledge allows me to contribute to this end at the moment ?:

Have a good laugh and a nice Sunday ... and don't miss to contribute heavily ???.
