This might seem like an "off topic", but if I can get the following info
I should be able to operate RTTY for the PAQSO rover operation being
planned.
I need to know the "pin assignment" for the battery connections inside the
old "IBM Thinkpad Model 360" laptop. I have a working unit, no battery
and no DC adaptor for use in the vehicle (no inverters, please). If I
had the info as to how to connect the 9.6 volts to the pins inside the
laptop, I'd make a regulator and could run the unit off the vehicle 13-V
bus.
Anybody got an old 360 with a battery who can look at it and help out??
Present plans incomplete, but the fall in gas prices has caused me to
say I'll be up for the party. Probably 8 or 9 counties max, both days,
suggestions welcome. Thinking Ind, Cli, Jun, Sny, etc area.
No rainstorms, please.
