Re: LZ: Re: Cassette Backup

Ok here's my idea.. Someone get a Y splitter for 2.5 mm plugs, hook the 
splitter into one link port, and hoot the other calc to the splitter 
with the calc-calc link. then take a 2.5mm to 3.5mm connector and connect 
the other arm of the splitter to the input of a recording device.. such 
as a casette recorder..  Start the recorder,  then initiate a transfer 
between the 2 calcs.. you will end up with a recording of the whole 
thing. then you can figure out about the asyncronous transfers by 
listening to the tape.. :)
