Hi all, The seller relisted this item for a third time, now with a foto with the unit working. This time, I bidded to and got it for a thousand euros. Just received the parcel. Board and Konsole are really beautifull and working as new. Version 2.20 to top it off. A true hunter waits for a clean sho...

Happy 2020 to you and all forum members Steve Happy new year from this side of The Great Waters too! I'm on a high these last days.

@Schachspieler Thank you for your explanation of the adaptive process but can you explain if setting the Centaur to Expert mode makes any difference. I have observed in a number of games against computer opposition that Centaur does not always make the optimal moves it is capable of and thus ends u...

A few minutes ago I was given a link to another computerchess forum where we were insulted by benny from topschach, https://schach.computer/the-king-performance-schachcomputer/ Benny can of course write whatever he wants in his own computerchess site, But I am not amused to see the computerchess sc...

I would be interested to know what is your "collector ranking" for the line of Mephisto 16/32 modules. This is *not* related to their ELO ranking but more about how "rare" they are or "more interesting" they are. Hi, In never was and will never be a Lang fan. Lang was ...

[quote="fdimeglio". How can I measure that voltage BTW ? A detailed description would help a lot ;-) [/quote] Hi, With a München it involves opening up the board (unscrew every screw until you see the module pcb). Then measure with a volt meter on the two coils that put the current on the ...

7 cm for München and Bavaria. The 6 cm rook is not an original piece of the sets. But I know there are some sets with a smaller piece-heights. Maybe it is from a later production, but only for the München. The Bavaria Sets have always a roog-height of 7 cm. Hi, I have here a München S (Roma 68000) ...

Let us know what you know about it. Hardware Talk Regards, Fabrice Hi Fabrice, What you shared about the Bavaria is pretty much going in the direction I was thinking. I'll take that up with Steveuk himself. About soldering mistakes on Pcb's: I have a few here at home. Funnily enough, I also encount...

I could do some tests with some diagrams from th BT-xxxx suits of diagram from Schachcomputer.info if needed. 68030 Regards, Fabrice I'd like to know if Steve's Pcb is compatible with the Bavaria board... The original software on the ...

Hi Al As far as I am aware you always pay tax on imports from America. Have a read of this. https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty Bryan Exactly, I imported two chess computers from the USA and got taxed twice. Never again… Paying tax on 20 year old "products". Ridiculous....
