Dang Al...  Some of those I was actually trying to forget...  ;)
About the only one you mentioned that I didn't learn to program in was RPG, but your 'Ugh!' gives me hope that it might be good for my sanity that I missed that one...  lol

Hmm..  Basic, GW-Basic, MS-Basic, and how many others ???
C, C+, C++, and I seem to remember more nightmarish variants.
And I lost ALL those reference/coding books in the fire...  :'(
(all my radios, computers, tools too - very sad about that)
(even my first CoCo32k and Silver RS Model-1 Level-2 (4k iirc))
(the Drakes, Hammarlunds, Moto's, TMC's, Swans, Cleggs, and MSR's)
Just getting back into the hobby with these Baofengs.
Have my eye on the Baofeng 5001 for the BlackRAM.

Does anyone know how to convert Hex' to Binary any more ?
Hi Hi on the years.
The PDP-11 in the early 80's and the IBM-360 in the mid 70's.

I saw mention of papertape and punchcards in another post.
I can hardly wait to read that one, and FSM it.
    (FSM = Fold, Spindle, Mutilate)
Did punchtape in military as RTTY Op on Angry26Delta.
ROTFLMFAO
Thanks!

And YES! I'm getting to be an ol' fart.

73 4 now!
