    Help: BLOC BUSTER (Micro User June 1991) 
    Text: I have a question about part of the listing for the BLOC BUSTER 
          game which appeared in the June edition of the Micro User.  The 
          user defined characters were defined using 4 digit hex numbers 
          eg. VDU23,248,&FAFE;&EEF6;&BEDE;&FEFE.  Can anybody explain the 
          coding involved in defining these characters in this format?

    Help: Gisburns Castle 
    Text: Has anyone out there got a copy of this program?  I used to have 
          the old cassette version, but it was so unreliable and took so 
          long to load that I ditched it.  I used to enjoy it, but as I 
          couldn't convert it I am not at a loss.

    Help: BBC Scanners 
    Text: Does anyone out there own a Scanner? - NOT an image scanner but 
          a receiver that they use either for tracking satellites or 
          listening to the airband/amateur frequencies.  I have an AOR AR 
          1000 Wide Range monitor and understand that there is software 
          available for the BBC which enables it's connection to the User 
          Port thus enabling satellite images to be displayed on screen. 
     
          Also, has anyone have access to a Morse Decoder program that 
          will turn morse code tones into text on the screen?  Please 
          contact me through my 8BS mailbox should anyone be able to help.
