IRC log started Wed Jan 6 00:00:00 1999 Ummm, ATV is 4Mhz... <_QZ> u need a multi ghz xmitter <_QZ> atv? atv is 4Mhz... <_QZ> abi: forget atv _QZ: I forgot atv "Ham TV" [msg(TUNES)] permlog 1999.0106 <_QZ> well that still doesnt give u 10mhz Hmmm I rather wanted to avoid microwave... <_QZ> u would need to use a bit splitter to ride the signal over 3 channels <_QZ> and then recombine the signal at the other end Can I slow down the Eathernet signal? <_QZ> not to mention u need full duplex <_QZ> that means u need 20mhz <_QZ> NO <_QZ> if u wanna send ethernet u need a 20mhz channel <_QZ> and u can sitck it into yer mic input <_QZ> er Uhhh, nevermind about the mic... <_QZ> u can NOT stick it into yer mic input That would be at 144Mhz <_QZ> what The radios with the mic input I was talking about, would be around 144Mhz <_QZ> 144mhz for what Transmitting/receiving <_QZ> thats right above fm channels Yup, 2meters <_QZ> yer looking at 200khz So I need to design a full-duplex 4Ghz radio? <_QZ> why do u wanna do this? So I can link my network with a friends... <_QZ> how far away? Couple miles <_QZ> bummer <_QZ> sorry no can do What at microwave? <_QZ> fcc regulation says hobby radios cant xmit over 1/4 mile Uhhhh, no On 10Meters, hams transmist all over the world <_QZ> u will need to license a channel in the gigahertz range <_QZ> nono at 2 meters has go 50+ miles <_QZ> ham is not hobby Well, fine. <_QZ> u need a license to use ham I have a license KF6SLW <_QZ> ham has channels preallocated for it And so does my friend 12:10am <_QZ> U WILL NEED TO ***BUY*** CHANNEL SPACE FROM THE FCC Why? I have privliges in that range... <_QZ> u have a ham license and dont know the bandwidth of a ham channel? <_QZ> do they not make u take tests anymore? Ummm, yes there are tests... For the licence I have I just don't take a _really_ techniall one Technical even <_QZ> well think about this <_QZ> human speech requires a 20khz bandwidth Right <_QZ> deep voices are in the 500-1000hz area <_QZ> and high pitch is around 15k <_QZ> human hearing stops at 18k <_QZ> cept for a select few that can go upto 40k 40! WOW! <_QZ> ofcourse they cant be in rooms with tvs cuz they can hear the refresh signal on the tv <_QZ> since most "normal speech" is below 3000hz the fone company gave each channel a 3k bandwidth <_QZ> so anything about 3k gets cut off So, anything in the range 500Hz-3Khz doesn't get cut? <_QZ> u cant sing opera in the fone and break glasses at the other end <_QZ> ya its actually 3.3k <_QZ> to be precise 3000Hz = 3.3Khz?? <_QZ> no but the .3 is not important Ah <_QZ> and is 2 extra letters to type <_QZ> now 12:20am Yah? <_QZ> uhh i cant think right now <_QZ> too tired Uhhh, thats ok, neither can I. What is the frquency of TV refresh? Is that the same as color burst? <_QZ> its around 39khz for the horizontal refresh and 60hz for the vertical Ah <_QZ> monitors also use 39khz for low resolutions <_QZ> like 640x480 <_QZ> my monitor is at 1600x1200 and 81khz Geez.... how big is that moniter? <_QZ> 17" <_QZ> my monitor? rumour has it my monitor is at 1600x1200 and 81khz <_QZ> abi: forget my monitor _QZ, I didn't have anything matching my monitor abi: forget my monitor <_QZ> hmm lar1, I didn't have anything matching my monitor 12:30am <_QZ> abi: forget "my monitor" _QZ, I didn't have anything matching "my monitor" <_QZ> monitor? <_QZ> my? <_QZ> stupid bot <_QZ> abi is also a stupid bot okay, _QZ. abi: my monitor? i haven't a clue, lar1 <_QZ> my monitor? hmmm... my monitor is at 1600x1200 and 81khz <_QZ> whois abi? i am the little girl borg with a big brain or in perl or a stupid bot Thats interesting... abi: abi is also silly okay, lar1. abi: abi is also crazy okay, lar1. <_QZ> whois abi? rumour has it i am the little girl borg with a big brain or in perl or a stupid bot or silly or crazy or a little slut <_QZ> :) You added the slut part I gather? <_QZ> who me? :) Umm, who is TUNES?

Probably... <_QZ> damn What are you trying to do? <_QZ> magnetize a paintball <_QZ> and make a magnetic barrel <_QZ> the ball would float thru the middle of the barrel <_QZ> not touching the side 12:40am <_QZ> and if the magnets were angled they could help propell the ball faster So what lens is there to scratch? <_QZ> goggles Don't shoot the people in the goggles then... <_QZ> would iron particles be toxic? <_QZ> cuz u can also eat paint in games <_QZ> i ate a ball once, nasty tasting Who the hell would want to eat paint? <_QZ> no, it hits the mask and shoots into yer mouth I imagine it would be non-toxic... <_QZ> there are small vent holes in the mask Hmm <_QZ> is it safe to eat iron filings? I dunno, I don't see why not... <_QZ> uhh Its the same stuff in your Cheerios, right? Just not all mixed up... ;) <_QZ> maybe i could use a superconducting ceramic in the balls and freeze them with n2 in the hopper <_QZ> no <_QZ> the mineral iron is not the same I have seen lotsa things intended for childern that don't say "EAT and DIE!"

Umm, sure, I just got it working :) r the excessive question marks /really/ necessary? I got it working too !!, but I changed the code ... I made a binary file, to read the kernel from the floppy disk and put it on memory, then I switch to PMODE and do a FAR JMP to that location, so it reboots !! 02:30pm ??? Hmm.. probably an addressing problem.. that happened to me. Boot sector loads at 0x7C00 (absolute address) yes It's bigger than 1 sector, right? How do you load rest of the kernel? I made one file to the boot loader and other file to the kernel... You mean DOS files, like in John Fine's examples? the boot loader is at 1st sector of floppy disk and the kernel is at the 2nd sector yes oh ok. You just load the kernel starting at 7E00? no, the kernel will be at 0x10000 (65536) and I will run it there Like Linux. Well, as long as you know where it is :) ωνω _QZ [brand@p0wer.qzx.com] has joined #tunes hey QZ <_QZ> hey tcn mac: What assembler are you using? but I dont know if the problem is in real mode and protected mode addresses nasm on linux !! same here, ok. btw, bochs might help.. abi, bochs? hmmm... bochs is sloooooooooow or at http://www.bochs.com Make a .LST file and look at it.. see if the addresses are right in the GDT.
