It is called QZX. It is geared for the amateur (ham) radio operator with Timex/Sinclair computer equipment, such as yours truly, KA2CSH. I also spoke with Curt Carlson of the Mile High users group. He stated that the [SMUG digitizer](http://localhost/tag/smug-digitizer/) has a mistake in it. If you locate the 3 resistors next to each other (running vertically), they are actually reversed. If you switch the blue-gray-red for the orange -orange-orange, the EYBYNI program will scan in the multiple scans option with a decreasing darkness gray-scale. There is no gray-scale scanning with the resistors soldered in the way they are now. Problem is, John McMichael’s video digitizing program fixes this within the software that he wrote. Curt has solved this by using a DPDT switch and hooking up a pair of resistors there.
