Re: TI-H: Link wire extension



Because that would make it look suspicious in a test wouldn't it?  Also,
you can't network calcs together this way...

: I like the idea of an IR or radio link, but it these are almost too
: complicated to build (not to mention expensive ;-) ).  Why not just make
an
: extension to the link cable using telephone wire (the round kind in the
: wall, not the flat kind that plugs into the phone or modem). I've tried
this
: idea by cutting the wire in half and soddering wire to them, and it
works!
: The only side effect is that ZPong is a little slower, but not much. A
: better idea would be to make an extension with a 2.5mm stereo jack at one
: end of the extension wire, and a plug at the other.  This way you could
use
: the link at the normal length or the long length.  If anybody sees
anything
: I've overlooked, please tell me!
