Anyone know if there are any echo areas where Commodore ANSI and PETSCII screens get posted?
Mostsystems can display ANSI, but not all can display PETSCII.
I know that here ar Reign of Fire's Amiga BBS can handle displaying
ANSI, PETSCII and Skypix. Of course ASCII.

Hi.
You could check out the BBS '8 bit boyz'. I usually connect with my C64, but to be honest, I don't know if it uses ANSI or PETSCII.

It depends on which 8bitboyz BBS you are logging into. The PC Mystic
board is ANSI, The Kats Alley is Image BBS 3.0 which is a C64 BBS and support ANSI, ASCII and Petscii...

Hi.
I'm connecting to tka.8bitboyz.com. I'd never noticed what format it used, whether ANSI, PETSCII or both. It's a bit slow, but you can't expect much from
aC64, and it's a pretty good machine.
TKA is the C64 board. Like I said it supports everything except Atari color but that is a possibility in the future. ;)
