Yes, I hooked an SPO256 + CTS244 text to speech chip to a software UART. However, I don't reccomend this solution.

|
|
I think I've got this thing licked, but I would like some real life examples to test it. If you've been wanting a flexible hose for your model, send me a .dat file with the ends (750.dat) in place, and I'll run it through and send you back a (...) (26 years ago, 26-Jan-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I thought we knew that already -- the 1999 NA in-box catalog shows the blades inserted into either end of the hilt. Wasn't there some double-bladed light sabre, with blades coming out of *both* ends of the hilt? Steve (26 years ago, 26-Jan-99, to lugnet.starwars)
