From Kharko Pavel To All 24 February 2006

Hello, All Good day. After looking at several diagrams, I concluded that my SLAVUTICH is Leningrad 2. I’m very interested in what thoughts anyone has about this cars. Thanks in advance

From Alexander Zan To All 24 February 2006

Hello, 80xx Do you have any specific questions? %)

From Kharko Pavel To All 24 February 2006

Hello fan I am interested in the features of this machine, since this is my first spec. possible glitches, etc., etc.

From Alexander Zan To All 25 February 2006

Hello, 80xx It seems that his FE port is also not decrypted quite correctly. Need according to the scheme take a look.

Hello, 80xx 80x> I am interested in the features of this machine, since this is my first 80x> spec. interested in possible glitches, etc., etc. I can say about my “workhorse” that it is, in principle, standard 48K machine. There are only 2 ports on board - FE and 1F. The disadvantage of the car can be considered low purely clock cycles per frame, I don’t remember exactly, somewhere around 69000. Because of this some programs do not work, in particular I had to struggle for a long time with launching ZX-Power#3 and DOOMMANIA. The magazine started after 10-20 attempts, and in the game it was possible You can only move around blindly, guided only by the map. But, there is a diagram from VMG, which solves this problem (increases pure clock cycles per frame). But in general the computer is not bad and IMHO “more correct” in comparison with Leningrad1. I expanded it (L2) to 128K with FDD and AY, everything worked. Taking this opportunity, I would like to once again ask those present, someone does anyone know anything about the origin of the clone? The fact that this is not Zonov’s development is almost a fact. Or maybe at least the users of the subject will speak out, so that determine its habitat.

Vlad, I remember the topic about the authorship of "Leningrad 2" came up in our correspondence, so I asked on occasion (in personal correspondence) questions about the origin the specified clone. No exact answer was received, but about the fact that computers on it was based on mass production, I heard it several times. I think that's what we're talking about , therefore information on its manufacturer is interesting. If 2> was produced by NPO "Slavutich" and the case of the computer of the same name was adapted for fee, then this is probably their brainchild. In any case, most often It is mentioned specifically by Ukrainian spektrumists.

From Vlad Semchenko To All 27 February 2006

Hello Conan Con> In any case, is mentioned most often Con> by Ukrainian spektrumists. This is actually interesting, because someone (I don’t remember who exactly) suggested that since clones were usually called by city-developer, then the subject is most likely from St. Petersburg. And about this I have there is doubt. And I wanted, if not to find out the truth, then at least to have plausible version. Question for 80xx, are there any labels on the board? If you would like to take a photo (emblem)!

From Timonin Maxim Anatolievich To All 27 February 2006

Hello spensor spe> that since clones were usually named after the city of development, then the subject spe> most likely from St. Petersburg. Yeah! Then all the “pentagons” (good thing they’re not “Langley” yet!) are the brainchild of American intelligence agencies released to undermine the standards in the Spectrum movement in ex-USSR! :)
