The Spectrum Show EP146 

Weirdly, I’m clearing my parents house (they both passed a few months ago) and I came across my Your Sinclair enamel badge that I got when my letter was printed in 1984 in the mag!

Thanks for another great episode. And thanks for your kind comment on the cover I drew for the Retro Annual.

It gave it a good go, but that Yes and No type-in didn't quite manage to replace Geoff. But if you added a few more responses regarding Jetpac and Manic Miner it might.

Brilliant Paul 🤩 Always love your show. Feeling a bit ill just now... this really lifted my spirits ❤️

Johnny the Ghost looks like a *really* good version of Sokoban. Those hang-rails are an interesting twist. Thanks, always loving your videos Paul. I wish I had that Fuller keyboard growing up (or the DKtronics one, especially since "DK" are my initials...)

I had 2 spectrums. One I got with Christmas money one year and the other I found in a jumble sale. The second one had a black enclosure in which the rubber key spectrum sat. It had big red keys that pushed down the rubber keys with pegs. It worked surprisingly well.

Thanks Paul. You missed a '1' out of the episode title.

I had a 48K with interface 1 and two MicroDrives. I got the FDS keyboard and fitted the spectrum and IF1 internally and I also mounted the two MicroDrives on top. It was excellent.

Great episode. I remember buying Tribble Trubble back in the day

The retro annual looks great, will have to buy a copy

Always a pleasure to watch, and I didn't even have a Spectrum back in the day :) Can I persuade you to make an MSX show on the side?

The later fuller keyboards always looked to me like they re-used the Camputers Lynx case.

ALways great to get to the end of the month and another episode. That keyboard does look great and I like the way those function keys work. Legend of the Amazon Women does look pretty dull.

Another great video. I think I've watched every one.

The music on 'Johnny the Ghost' sounds really familiar. Had it been used in an earlier game?

I had a DK'tronics keyboard, but found the Lo Profile better - since it was lower. But unfortunately, some keys gave up and I switched back to the DK'tronics. Bit flimsy (with stickers instead of proper printing), but quite reliable.

I wonder how many people purchased the Jupiter Ace keyboard?

We had Tribble Trouble back in the day. People who bang on about Dark Souls being difficult don't know they're born. I could only get as far as level 3 with the bouncing ball and the pins.

Thanks for sharing

Johnny the ghost look so good, can you buy it on cassette?

Johnny the Ghost is Catrap for the Gameboy which is a great game

Thank you.

Legend Of The Amazon Women looks like it's my level of gaming. I'll give it a go.

I was disappointed with mine, Too loud for my liking. I did fit my Kempston interface internally and mounted the joy port to the top where the sticker would have gone. But it kept crashing and trying to plug in or out anything on the edge connector meant opening up the keyboard so I got rid of it.

One fix for that chatbot could be spelling "cheek" correctly.

i think you were on to something there at the end with that AI bot!

I bought a Fuller, I wonder if it’s still in the loft.

Did the DKtronics keyboard ever come with printed keys. I'm sure mine didnt have the stickers you had to add yourself.

Muy buen canal y aportación.👍🏻👌🏻

146 not 46?

I've dealt with retailers and utility companies whose chatbots produce conversations less coherent, and _much_ less amusing, than yours. You should license it. Just throw in a few responses like _"Do you have a smart meter?"_ or _"What is your order number?"_ and you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference.

do you like polotican

Worst dart game i've ever seen. 180 wipes the floor with it in every aspect.
