Calling all owners of rare ADB devices!

Yes, it did... until the Mac Classic II HDD decided to stop working a few hours ago. Ahem...

One other thought... are you sending ADB commands directly to the FM Radio on the IIgs? If so, you could try sending a Talk 0 after you send the Listen 2 to set the frequency. The FM Radio seems to echo the contents of register 2 in register 0 once after the frequency is set, I figured this was to let the Mac know it had finished tuning, but reading it might be required.

Hum... it works... And I do not know why really (perhaps because it is 3AM here)... I'm currently listening to Africa Radio at 107.5 MHz (when I thought I was at 107.7 MHz with value 25 00). That's cool. I will comment once I have things cleared. Thanks again.

Cool! Glad you got it to work.

I wrote a test app today. I made a video of it that one can watch @

The IIgs is in the garage, sound is better when the computer is moved closer to the outside world.
Adding calls to Talk 0 helped, that's for sure. Using big endian values too. Last but not least, the IIgs does not talk to the ADB chip directly, it talks to Keygloo that communicates with the ADB chip. So, the TALK/LISTEN commands of the ADB Tool Set are different from the TALK/LISTEN commands of the ADB chip...

 

[Antoine Vignau]

Solution found: I call Talk 0 four times before and after the call. That lets the FM Radio sync finely. It works pretty well now. Thank you a lot for your help and guidance. I've always wanted to listen to the radio from my beloved Apple IIgs, and, now... I can

Code & Explanations for the Apple IIgs version @ https://github.com/antoinevignau/source/tree/main/fmradio - I made it work, I am happy.

Sounds like the perfect application for a IIgs CDA/NDA.

Sincerest thanks to everyone who helped me add to the device list! If anyone's got any more, I'm happy to hear from you; if not, see you next year. =)

I once had a set of CH-Products F-16 Fighter Stick, Throttle, and Pedals. They daisy chained.

Just found this while reorganizing some stuff. I'll set it aside and maybe get around to installing it and adding it to your device list.
