FP-301D ID PROM
First test almost perfect.
Telsa 188 clone and TI 288 work fine. I screwed up the programming so one more time. is going to program one more time with my correction. I didn't transpose the manual work sheet to the ordered 2 byte programming sequence correctly, hosed? one byte up. The result was DE W7CP <bluh snuf, mumble> AR |
Finally 100% it's alive.
de W7CPA ar The Japanese FP-301D manual is correct. It's just a bear to markup the sheet with a pencil and then create the ordered 2 byte list for a PROM Programmer. I did this for grins and probably will never use it. The 10 minute timer only works if PTT is enabled for 10 minutes straight with no interruptions. Interesting olde 1970s digital design. Cheers all, |
Wanted to chime in with thanks. I intend to do the same for my FP-301D, perhaps with a mod to actuate ID on demand. I am not long winded enough for a ten minute timer!

I have no clue how I missed this group/thread other than I may have been too excited to do a thing before needed to know if I had to do a thing. I got one of these with a FT-301D and FV-301D and since I do a lot of work on old embedded/arcade stuff...I work with parallel EPROMS all the time. So I sat down a few hours ago with the schematic and basically reverse engineered that the data was timecode with sequential addressing. Actually...the minute I saw the 74151 and 7493s I started guessing when they said "time-code" in the US manual they literally meant time-code. Anyway...the only thing I hadn't worked out was the bit length of various things, which now that I've got? the Japanese manual with that information I'll have zero guesswork when doing a mockup. I might try to write a python application that will generate an image file that'll work with image burners. I'm also considering if my clock chip doesn't work just replacing everything with an Arduino and RTC module. |
