PNP is into programming the Amstrad for the radio enthusiast. Their first program for this machine is a Morse Tutor. Five modes of operation are possible. Firstly a structured tutor in itself, letters that need to be practiced can be specified. It has a library of words that can be randomly selected and text to be translated into morse can be entered from the keyboard. In addition, a data cassette can be prepared under program control to feed in when required. Over two hundred words are available from the program's library which have been specially chosen to cover the widest possible range of letter groups. Further words or text can be loaded from a previously prepared data cassette which is useful in setting up a dummy run of the morse test itself. A separate program is supplied to help set up the data cassette. The speed range is from 4 to 24 words per minute which is more than adequate for the amateur. Figures are included in a separate section of the tutor although they can be mixed with letters if required. Morse Tutor for the Amstrad CPC464 costs £6.90 and is available direct from PNP.

CPCrulez[Content Management System] v8.732-desktop/c Page créée en 584 millisecondes et consultée 53 foisL'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
