Your name was passed to me over the air, being a radio owner with 55 years experience in electronics. Since retirement, I have become 'hooked' on computers. I have just finished a complete rebuild of a Dragon computer, twin disk drives and daisywheel printer. I am now about to start on an Electron - so what I'm after is a manual and a circuit diagram if possible. Our local 'Brain of Britain' tells me the Electron will run most BBC software...? Is there any amateur software available?

I assume that G3 LPB is your call sign, Mr. Brown. Are there any other Electron owners who are also radio enthusiasts? If so, why not contact John for a chat? The circuit diagrams he seeks are easy discovered in Appendix F of Acornsoft's Advanced User Guide for the Electron. Does anyone have a spare copy? If so, please write in and we'll pass it along.

'Most' BBC software is, at the least, optimistic. Perhaps a list of compatible BBC titles could be published in EUG sometime soon...
