BBC B AMFAX 3.1

[AndyG]

Hi all

Recently acquired another BBC B as a spare and it contained a ROM I am not familiar with (it also had the Mega 3 ROM - which I can find info on)

In particular, it has the AMFAX 3.1 ROM which the Beeb booted into on power up. Does anyone have any manuals or docs that details what this ROM does please ?

Many Thanks

Cheers
Andy

I found this:

Customised ROM for the BBC for use with Kantronics TNCs or MFJ 1278. Offers 40/80 column split screen terminal. Storage/retrieval of data. Display of WEFAX pictures and storage to disk. Printing from disk.

"AMFAX", Radio Communication, January 1989.

Searching for Amdat and Amfax yields other results from the same publication.
