1. Zebra Systems Spectrum ROM 'cart'

John, maybe you know the answer to this one, since I got this
particular bit of kit from you in the past...

I have a Spectrum ROM  'cart' that's really a PCB with the right notch
for the TS2068 cart port.  Markings of ' Zebra PC23 Rev B' with that
looks like to be an EEPROM chip, pencil scribbled Spectrum Mod B (or
Hod, or 11od) covering the window.

Loaded it snugly into the port, turned on the ts2068, but nothing
shows aside from the regular boot screen.  Do I have to poke
something?


Happy spring!


-Louis

Louis,

the command to turn the Spectrum ROM on is:

OUT 244,3

It will reboot with the Sinclair copyright message.
