Hello everybody! :)
I am sitting here thinking about how to reverse the WeatherStar Junior (By the weather channel). I don't know the baud rate that's expected on the composite baseband in, but whatever. I think this would be really neat to run an old WeatherStar Junior tape through an VBI encoder, run it into an VideoCipher II Plus (If it is needed...), and dump the data out of the VBI encoder with the serial port. I am clueless (And dont want to distract from the Prevue reserse engineering project)... and thought maybe this would be the place to get some basic help with it.

Here's a picture of my WeatherStar Juniors configuration screen.

Cheers,
Curt

We don't even have the ROM extracted yet, so that needs to be done first.

lol thanks Tin :P I also have an o2 R500. I am getting a new system module for it, as the piece of crap CD Drive short circuited it (Odd, ehh?) At least the Indy boots up, as well as the Sparc :P

And as for this Jr project, i'll just call it dead. I am no longer involved with it, and the Jr is written in some language that I never even heard of before.
