Hi, I bought a dsk-1 keyboard in which the seller said it had the flashing ND and would not work so I am thinking great it just needs a new disk drive . Then...
This doesn't sound good to me. I'm not sure what "two uncomplete letter C's" would look like. The "nd" certainly meant "no disc" - it just needs a boot...

I do not understand the cover doe not slide all the way over and flicking the end of the floppy during boot can sometimes dislodge the cover and the cover...
Well - I was speaking of the metal cover on the floppy disk that needs to slide out of the way when the floppy is booted. Here's what I'd recommend: - list the...
Hi Dave, Are you sure about that new disk drive? Might be a compatibility problem. Mirages are pretty picky about the disk drives they hook up with and finding...

Had to track down the CEM 3328 schematic to see what you meant. Now I can see it. Wonder if the Crumar Bit 01 (which also has the 3328 filter.. at least the...

Hi Group! Well, I'm having to pare down my studio some; upgrading, streamlining, etc. And so the ol' Mirage has got to go. It's a late model DSK with a...
I've read that the rack mount Mirage DMS-8 is the same as the DSK-8, only no keyboard. Realistically, is there any difference between the two models? Thanks...
