DUODISK 5.25 DRIVE: Twin Bugg-Switches now added

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

Previously (II ALIVE, Summer 1996) I described how to add a three-way 
write protect switch to the Disk II drive.

This is a mini-toggle on-off-on switch installed on the front panel.

UP:  normal notch-control of write-protect

CENTER:  always protect

DOWN:  always write


The two lower positions give MANUAL CONTROL over the write-protect function,
while the upper position restores the drive to its "stock" condition.

The BUGG-SWITCH has also been installed in:

Platinum 5.25 drive

IIC internal drive.

Now, for the firt time, I installed twin BUGG-SWITCHES in a Duodisk IIe
twin drive.  The DuoDisk has one analog card for two drives.  At the 
right side of the unit, there is ample front-panel space for the twin 
switches, side-by-side.


I can install this unique switch on your drive for $5 plus return 
shipping; or two drives for $9.00 plus return shipping.
