Re: Audio cassette interface



Hi all together,

I found in my bookshelf an old Book from Rolf-Dieter Klein from
Germany, Ok, it´s not so "scintific", but has good practice features.
In this book is an CAS-Interface with 1200Baud up to 4800 Baud.

The problem is in Google to attach a file.

I´m sending this and with the replay I´m sending the file. I have no
other choice.

best regards

Wolfgang
