I need 2-3 more of the large brown ladder that comes in 6061, seen here: (URL) offering $4 per ladder, shipping incl. I'd prefer to deal with one seller who has 2 or 3, but I'll buy single ladders too. -Mike Ulring (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Well, it's hard to say what the problem might be. Since you've got the green LED going, you've probably got the cable wired correctly. And yes, it's 2400 baud, 1 start, 1 stop, 8 data, odd parity. Perhaps the packet isn't correct. Here's a sample (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Did the brown 13-rung ladder come in any sets other than 6061 Siege Tower? The gray just doesn't seem to look as good as brown in my Castle. SO, I need a couple more of these - and I'll pay handsomely for them ;-) -Mike Ulring (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.castle)
