Re: Help with a IIe and Disk-2

[buggie@auriga.unm.edu (stephen e buggie)]

This could be a TRACK-CENTER ALIGNMENT FAULT.

I will tune your Disk II to perfect alignment for $5 plus $5 return shipping.
Likewise for Platinum 5.25 drive.

Can add 3-way front panel write-protect switch, $5.00 (Disk II or platinum)

Can add front panel speed knob: $5   (Disk II only)







The alignment software is public domain (Aptest).  I will send it and my 
17K instruction file on disk for $2.00 to cover postage.
