CH> You know I had a website where the ORIGINAL videotex was being "brought
CH> back." They had old videotapes with the original signals on them and were
CH> sampling..and re-sampling the signals to try to extract the original
CH> signal. With some success.

I would love (and plan to) support the original frames. Well infact the US
implemetnation was a bit different to that used in AU and the UK (and france
too I think) - but nonetheless, I think the functionality was similiar.

You can see my original retro implementation on my website -
http://alterant.leenooks.net - and look for OzTex. You can connect, and
register/login, but there isnt much there in terms of frames. (If you press
Connect and it disconnects, try a 2nd or 3rd time - I havent tracked down why
this occurs yet). Going forward, I hope to load these frames into SBBS that
would make a more stable system.

I have no original videotex frames - but if there are around, I would love to
know.
