|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
will send a continous stream of small data packets that are catched by the program
|
|
|
|
|
running on the Apple-1. Each packet is 64 bytes long.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For each received packet a character will be displayed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `*` indicates a good packet
|
|
|
|
|
- `.` indicates packet not received
|
|
|
|
|
- an hex digit 0-F indicates the packet is partially corrupt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjust the volume level so that you have a lot of `*`.
