TRS-80 Model III with 16K RAM, no disk drives.
Condition
Has original (optional) anti-glare screen.
After some time the left side of the screen image becomes a bit 'folded'.
Has original tape recorder, but the cable is missing.
The cassette cable is simple to assemble yourself (jack plugs for mic/ear/motor to DIN), it did only the ear.
I successfully loaded some programs from old tapes, although most gave errors.
Connecting to a PC using PlayCAS, I was able to run some binary games.
Usage hints
Switch to 500 baud: >POKE 16913,0
Load and start a binary program from cassette: >SYSTEM *? X (wait) *? / (replace X with the first letter of the file name)
Load a basic program from cassette: >CLOAD (wait) >RUN
While loading, stars appear. A fixed star is always there and a blinking star which means it's loading. You need to tune the volume. A C means the volume is to high, no star blinking star means it's too low.
