I just repaired a TRS-80 Model 3 that I bought on OFFERUP, that was delivered with a broken CRT. I installed a new CRT, and things seemed to be fine, expect it boots up with a strange screen that I can not find anywhere on the internet. Really, I have looked for hours. Fortunately, that is how I found, and became a member of this forum.
It boots to the following screen:
NO CARRIER:CHECK PHONE LINE & MODEM NTAT PG7
SYMB LAST TICTREN CHANGE BID ASK HIGH LOW SETTLE
>
I do not have a cassette hooked up, so is the default to try to boot to a MODEM, or is there possibly some kind of a custom ROM?
Pressing BREAK, or CLEAR does nothing. Trying to boot while holding down BREAK does nothing. The same screen come up no matter what keys are pressed during boot up.
And Nothing you enter at the ">" prompt does anything.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
