Novag Carnelian II crystal

Hi,

I have been doing a lot of experimentation with the current series of Novag 16K chess computers (Star Opal, etc). I already have a Star Opal, but I am wanting to purchase a Carnelian II purely...

I just found an interesting link about Craig Barnes here:

I think this is a relatively new link - I had not found it before in previous...

Saitek Maestro / Sensor XL / Bullet

Are the programs in these three machines all by the same author (Craig Barnes?).

I recently acquired a Saitek Bullet from eBay and have found it to be very impressive - much better than I was...

Yes. I have heard this from a reliable source as well. I was told by a collector years ago that the Excalibur machines such as King Arthur, LCD Talking Chess, Ivan II, etc all ran on 6502 processors...

I might be wrong about the Star Opal having a 6301 processor. As I say, it is the same black blob format found in current generation Novag products as well as Excalibur products. The only visual...

Sadly no, there does not seem to be any EPROMS inside these machines. Or anything else inside them that can be hacked by an owner, apart from the crystals themselves. All these machines these days...

Well this experiment wasn't a success :( Although the star Opal ran fine at 22 Mhz, I actually could not obtain any fundamental overtone crystals beyond 22 Mhz in order to see if it could run faster...

The little Opal is now successfully working at 20 Mhz. Over the weekend I will try 22 Mhz, 24 Mhz and 30 Mhz, though I suspect the limit is 22 or 24.

In any case, I don't see any advantage at all...

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the reply. It was good that your experiment succeeded, because the Mephisto you modified is only powered by 4 x 1.5 cells.

Given that you did not change anything else in...

Greetings :)

After performing surgery on my Novag Star Opal I currently have it running perfectly at 12 Mhz (I have changed the crystal only).

My understanding is that the 6301Y processor has...
