TRS-80 Color Computer Model 2 Home Control Set - Untested

[granz]

As per the title, this is an entire set, excepting the Monitor.

Included items are:

• TRS-80 Color Computer Model 2, 64K (26-3127)
• Multi-Pak Interface (4 cartridge slots - 26-3024)
• Plug'n Power Controller (26-1182)
• Appliance and Light Controller Cartridge (26-3142)
• Deluxe RS-323 Program Pak (with DB-25 connector - 26-2226)
• Speech-Sound Pak (26-3144)
• Diagnostics Pak (26-3019)

• RCA RP3503 Personal Portable Cassette Recorder and Cassette Player
• Cassette Recorder/Player Interface Cable
• Tandy Pistol Grip Deluxe Joystick (26-3123)
• Tandy Deluxe Joystick (26-3012)

Since I do not have a composite monitor, nor the time or energy to test, this system is offered as untested.

The Color Computer 2 systems that have been on eBay have been selling for $150 and up, for just the computers themselves. I would like to get about $350 (plus shipping) for this set, but as always my Savage//Chats friends get lower rates.  Is anyone interested in this?

Since this is supposed to be a home control system, I decided to throw in a couple of my X-10 modules. So...

• Radio Shack Heavy Duty Appliance Module (61-2684B) - Tested *
• Another Radio Shack Heavy Duty Appliance Module (61-2684B) - Tested *
• IBM Lamp Module (HD465) - Tested *
• Another IBM Lamp Module (HD465) - Tested *

* These items were tested by setting them to known addresses, and testing the appliance modules with a small desk fan, and the lamp modules with a small LED desk lamp. The desk lamp did have a light glow when off, but fully bright when turned on. I don't know if that is because of leakage due to the low-power LED, or the modules are not working correctly.

I can certainly wait that long, no troubles. How much are you able to give for the set?

I just wanted to make sure that you know about this. Only the X-10 appliance, and lamp, modules are tested, nothing else.

I could do $300 if that works for you? I did notice that, my TV is has RCA connectors so I figures I could test it on there. If any of it isn't working I'm welling to put in a lot of work to get it working. This is a dream deal I wanted a CoCo but all that other stuff is a real dream. While I was looking the CoCo up to see if I remembered right about capitalizing both c's I found colorcomputerarchive.com.

That will work. I'll bring it over tomorrow.

That might be enough. Unfortunately, as far as I know, most modern TVs do not have RCA connectors, so yours may accept composite input. Cool!

I sure hope that you can get it working.

That game (Dragons of Daggorath) was written by one of the guys who presented at the Tandy Assembly that I attended in 2024. It was really cool hearing him talk about writing the first game sold by Radio Shack. When you get your CoCo running, I would like to watch you play it - and maybe try it myself.

Okay awesome!

It has component for sure and I'm pretty certain it has composite too.
