The WROCC Vol 39 Issue 2 Out Now

The somewhat delayed May 2021 issue of The WROCC – the newsletter of the Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club – is on its way out to members across the UK and beyond this weekend.

In Volume 39 Issue 2, we look back to the 2021 Wakefield Acorn & RISC OS Computer Show, with two in-depth reports of the presentations made on the day. One of our members describes how they created a set of animated engineering drawings as drawfiles using BASIC, and we investigate the options for converting and re-scaling video signals.

See https://www.wrocc.org.uk/newsletter for more details of recent issues, and to download samples of older issues.

Able to trace its roots directly back to the first Wakefield Club newsletter in April 1983, these days The WROCC is produced in an A5 booklet layout and copies are delivered free to WROCC members in PDF format. Membership of the Club costs £15 per year with a reduced rate of £7.50 for the first year… and despite our name, there are no geographical restrictions.

The Wakefield Back Catalogue Issue 10

Relaunched following the completion of Volume 37 of The WROCC in April 2020, the tenth edition of The Wakefield Back Catalogue contains PDF copies of the Club’s monthly newsletters going from The WROCC and Awake right back to the very first “hints & tips” sheet handed out at the April 1983 meeting.

Originally intended for release at the 2020 Wakefield Show, the new compilation contains around 408 issues and is available as a download in these more ‘virtual’ times. It costs £7.50 for non-members, whilst members can buy it for the discounted price of £5.00. See https://www.wrocc.org.uk/newsletter for more details.
