Televideo TS 803 Arrival and Unboxing

[@pdaguytom]

I have the PC version of the TS 803 that was purchased by the company I worked for in the early 80's. The sole purpose of the machine was to do fire sprinkler hydraulic calculations on and print out submittal calcs on a high speed Okidata dot matrix printer. Found it in a storage loft when the company was relocated about 20 years ago. I was told to toss it, so I tossed it in my shop. It's still going 40 years later. Thanks for the video!

Hey, thanks for tuning in. OMG that's amazing! I can't wait to get this beast powered up. These computers are definitely beefy.

My first computer!

Awesome!

I have the same computer, been having trouble with nothing showing on the display, already replaced the crt controller and the z80 that was dead, and recapped the tube but nothing.

I'm going to start troubleshooting mine soon so maybe we can get some ideas what's up with yours.

I think you spotted my helper. LOL

[@revision386]

@@ClassicMicrocomputers I have a helper too but I don't think he is working out. He used my laptop keyboard as a scratching post. Had to fire him.

Disassemble... Dead

LOL, I hope not. Going to see if I can get a schematic for troubleshooting.
