ERAMCO MLDL MCODE Source Listings

[RonP]

How good to hear. I was cleaning out my cupboards and found a few of these boxes, eproms and documentation from the past including the first prototype on a PCB board.
I was one of the 3 founders of Eramco (the “R”). The othe two founders were “A” from Arne and “M” from Martin.
We did assembled quite a few of the literraly on the kitchentable in Amsterdam. Jan Buitenhuis who was a KLM pilot took care of the FCC approval by visiting them with the box for testing etc.
We had a lot of fun that time and worries, scaling up up from a breadboard design to a nice reliable PCB in a solid enclosure was for sure not an easy piece of cake for us as 3 enthousiast students at that time. We made the masks for the PCB’s by hand with plastic sheets and black tape.

As I came across in my cupboard the old prototype it made me wonder if there were still folks using these or doing microcoding, using this nice old hardware etc.

Kind regards from the Netherlands,

Ronald
