[sebhc] Re: 13 New HUG disk images.

[Mark Garlanger]

I noticed in the HUG Software Products List that I have (Remark #36,
Jan 83), that 885-1052 listed as a different package than what I have
on my disk. In the magazine, it says that it's a 'H11/H19 Support
Package'. But the disk I have, is clearly an original disk and it
states ' Morsecode --- H8 Disk'. I've check-out the disk, and verified
that it has Morse code software/documentation on it. I also have a
hard cardboard instruction sheet, showing how to build the special
hardware required by the software, it too has the same 885-1052 part
number on it. If someone has any older HUG Lists, could you verify
that in fact HUG had this listed at one time, and apparently reused
the part number?
If this is the case, it's definitely going to be harder to determine
what software we are still missing.

BTW: Does anyone have a complete collection of Remarks? I only have 6
issues: #36, #42-#47. Anyone planning on scanning these and adding
them to the library?

Thanks,
   Mark
