A dude just doing what he likes and recording it. It's really chill to listen to, and learn things about obscure technical equipment (ok maybe not obscure but i have never gotten the opportunity to mess with a commodore haha).
Yes i agree. Spent a decade or so burning proms and light flashing chips for CNC mills. That stuff will zap in a hurry. We would load a chip and it would take 15 minutes under light. Then put the sticker on it and burn it. Took another 20 or 30 minutes to put a few KB on it. The good ol days.
7:37 "All hail 1980's sun burnt suit executive finger point man." The tried and tested confidence you need to secure the only computer you will ever need!!!
I just introduced a previous employer to them and they tried them out. The cost was 1/5 of their previous vendor even with the next higher TG grade, and the HASL alloy they use was more solderable than their previous vendor too (they use Sn96/Au3.5/Cu.5 solder in production). Thumbs up in all regards.
I am incredibly jealous.. I still use a bunch of old tech from this period, mostly ham radio packet stuff, and something like that would have made a great addition to the setup.
This is tremendously amusing. I'd be happy to see more Commodore 64 shenanigans :) My Dad used to have one, I remember having a lot of fun with some of the games for it as a kid.
I take advantage of PCBway as many times as I can, but it's so far mostly metal 3d printing since I'm too dumb to design circuits. I didn't realize they have a catalogue of available circuits to order though. That changes everything in my view.
I used to hang out in the Electronics area of my local K-Mart and played the HELL outta their SX-64. Dude behind the counter was cool, letting me check out any game they had available. He and I both knew that this SX-64 was not going to be sold anytime soon - I think the price was something $699 AU.
I love shop cats!! Also, KiCad is excellent for schematic drawing and PCB layout, not overly sophisticated but powerful enough to do most anything. There is even a PCBWAY plug-in kinda thing that automates the process of creating and submitting the Gerber files for fabrication. 🤟
designing PCBs is not easy, there is a quite steep learning curve ( especially with kicad wich is still clucky and very confusing...but very capable and free) but man is it so much easier now with pcbway and other similar companies. I still remember how much of a hassle it was before they were available to us. Normal pcb fab companies were extremely expensive and etching your own boards at home offered very limited capabilities, in addition to being a pain in the ass and a messy process.
Gosh, telnet is still extant? That's amazing, and kinda' encouraging. Thanks for showing us this Gabe - I found it nostalgic and inspiring at the same time. Cheers mate.
Telnet is Massively used by the Ham Radio / Communications community especially in the DXCluster on-line system. Like;y over a thousand telnet servers around the world. Why you ask? Text based will always outperform the entire Graphical Interface.
This is my favorite youtube channel. I usually like watching you mess around with radios and satellites so I wasn't expecting to enjoy this video as much. But seeing you get this thing online was super cool. I remember getting online for the first time with my Dad around 1995, its really something to see what the web looked like before that
I've never used PCBWay but they support some of my favourite YT channels and seem like a decent bunch by reputation. Congrats on getting the attention. Never heard of this C64 model, fascinating.
Yes, please do more commodore stuff. I could watch that all day. I had some major nostalgia watching this. I have two of my c64s plus a vic20. I just need to hack together a cable to play with them. That tinsy cartridge is a good find, I will have to check it out.
bbs and packet station would be amazing ! fantastic work getting this up and running - the screen capture was very smart / well done. Very enjoyable as ever. Oh and thank to PCBWaaaaaaaay (oops wrong retro tech channel ;o)
100% would hang out there if you made a telnet version of a dialup style BBS for the channel. Chat rooms, old text games like Legend of the Red Dragon etc. Could have a leaderboard for who logs on using the most creative/kludged/extreme methods; "Typing this from a national park on a graphics calculator connected to a VHF packet modem". [Shortly after, CuriousMarc viewers run telegraph wires to Minnesota and log in from a 200lb TTY machine] :D
You may already know this, but the high-pitched CRT noise picks up on video! You can remove it in editing using some sort of filter or cut-off on your audio track to make it a little more pleasant to listen to. Also, not much of a techie myself but I love your vids!
That was a time when an operating system could fit into an EPROM. PCBs from PCBWay make many things possible, and PCBWay has been supplying me with PCBs for quite some time. I also really like the aluminum PCBs for LED applications.
Bro, this is cool.....as someone who's first computer was a 64 and then a 128, ran a BBS with 7 floppy drives of space on a 1200 baud modem..... I've only ever seen one (SX-64) in person.
Making another comment because I finally got a chance to finish the video. I love everything about this system and the accessories you picked up for it. I'm right there with you, I could spend days on that thing, exploring what it can do, the games, BBS, and all the other stuff. I really wish I had kept my old computer systems from back in the day. I used to have an 8086 XT system, which I played Sim City and Carmen Sandiego on for many hours. I also used to have a very strange computer, similar to this one, but it was integrated into a briefcase with a little screen that popped up, if I remember correctly. Great stuff, dude. Looking forward to more.
Cool, nice to see another old computer back in action! Those modern PCBs are very cool, interesting to see this on the net! Plus with that built in CRT, you don’t need to set it up when you want to use it. It’s plug and play!
Purchased my SX-64 new (technically refurbished) out of a catalog called COMB Industries in 1986. Side note: Software for the Commodore along with many other 8-bit machines also came on cassette tape. Around the time the Commodore was peaking in the UK, 80% (approx) of users were using cassette as disk drives were crazy expensive there and then. I am in the USA and cassettes were used, but floppy was king.
The Commodore 64 a very rare site Thank you For making this in depth and Informative video it's very cool that A computer that old can still be Use To do some pretty awesome and amazing things! I think personally. On a lighter note try to network the Commodore 64 into an old-school QUAKE multi player game. Thanks for making this content.Please don't stop creating so that we may enjoy for them for the rest of our lives
I still got my SX-64 which I purchased new. I have an old modem for it too. There really was no internet back then here in Iowa. Even the servers required you to dial a long distance phone number and wait for the Commodore to connect. Later I bought a Casio FZ-1 sampler synth.. I used to connect to a server selling sound patches for this Casio keyboard. The internet grew like an ever expanding spiderweb and a decade later we had imternet providers where the monthly fee was far cheaper than connecting long distance to a specific server.
I own several SX64. I used one as a video test generator when I was building Ch 58 TV in Destin Florida in 1990. It generated the typical NTSC video test signal, including a window pattern to look for ringing in the video path. That keyboard cable is often missing. They used DB23 instead of DB25 which was a non standard connector. I repaired hundreds of the Vic20 C64, SX64 and C128 computers. Bad RAM was the highest failure item. I didn't use cold spray, I used a fingertip to check the ICs. Warm, it may be OK, but cold or hot was defective. I had a short BASIC program I could type in to identify the first bad RAM location. Just a few limes of code to type in. Then peek at that address to see which bit was bad. It was easier with a 20 MHz or better scope. Bad RAM drew excessive current on the data pin, which caused undershoot, below ground due to the voltage drop in the ground plane. Later production C/SX34 produced excellent video, unlike the Apple II. A school system near Cincinnati used one for their Local access channel on our community loop. You could barely read it, on a 13" TV and it looked worse on larger TVs. It didn't help that they chose a very cheap FM modulator & Demod to send it to the head end. We used RCA /EIE Vestigal Sideband hardware on our end, so that it didn't require multiple conversions for standard NTSC video. The schol sytem was served by to Cabe TV companied that I desinged a sea,less iterconnect. The other company wanted to give us audio & video, and onlt accpt the same in return. Thety had refused to pay any part of the costs, wich would have been over $30,000 in the early '80s. he two systems used differnt standars. Ours was standard Sub Split, with the reurn below Ch 2. They used Mid Split which was below Ch 7. I used a single conveter at the interconnect, so it and wo modulators at outr headend cost around $,000 and wuldn't reaguire constant attention like their crap FM hardware.
@@saveitforparts My first station was in Alaska, at Ft Greely over 50 years agp. The seconnd was in Orlando, Florida , with the transmitter on a 1700 foot tower in Orange City, Florida. It had a new Cmark transmitter, and the signal was 6MW, EIRP that covered about third of the state. It used three EEEV 65KW Klystrons plus the antenna gain to achive that power level. I built our mobile unit while there. The third station used the 1952 RCA transmitter from the second station. Since ir was close to an Air Force base.
There's another one with an embedded Raspberry Pi, but it's a little more expensive and kind of replaces the entire CPU of the Commodore, so it seems a little like cheating!
I remember seeing the SX-64 in the store.. I wrote a program in BASIC then later in machine language on the C64, that helped you solve letter substitution puzzles.
I've really been enjoying your videos. Great stuff!! I recommend a wireless lav mic; expense to quality increase ratio is massive there. However, I can't help but find it charming that you have all this neat tech hardware but just go raw into the camera with audio. It's kind of a vibe.

12:30 I dunno polish but i think POMOC is help. :p Would be cool if this could be made to do some ham stuff. It wouldn't have any practical purpose as you already have plenty of other computers that would be much better for the task, but it'd certainly be a vibe if it's like, outputting bits of data plucked from the sky. The computer doing the demodulation and passing the data on to this would have considerably more power than it though haha.
do you have any motors that you can control it's position (a servo like device) that spins at a reasonable rate? (something like a motor for a CNC machine so one of your encoders can understand it) if so try attaching a long screw or threaded rod to it. then attach an arm with something long enough for good leverage, then measure all the movements for accurate tracking movement. for your satellite dish
MSPaint is NOT BAD, it's just terribly misunderstood! hehehe. I actually use it quite often. it's great for easy line drawings... instead of having a bunch of layers, etc.
now there is a brand new commodore 64x new os you shoukd check it out i do have 6 commodore 64's and a couple of 1571 disc drives still in the box and an amiga 1000 and amiga a600 and 2 amiga 2000's
Now that you've got it online, find a TNC and get it on the air. There should be a few packet radio programs, I think there's a weird SSTV program too. Bounce some APRS off of the ISS?

@ radical dooode
You really should be wearing a grounding strap when working on 80s PCs. SIMMs and EPROMS are especially easy to fry with a single touch.
Yes i agree. Spent a decade or so burning proms and light flashing chips for CNC mills. That stuff will zap in a hurry. We would load a chip and it would take 15 minutes under light. Then put the sticker on it and burn it. Took another 20 or 30 minutes to put a few KB on it. The good ol days.
We don't know, maybe he's wearing footstraps and has an ESD floor just out of frame🤣
You mean socks and polymer carpet aren't the recommended antistatic solution
