Ever really want to go back in time to see what an exact BBS was like in 1993? Then this is the BBS for you. On May 1st 1993, this BBS was taken down and on May 1st 2023 exactly 30 years later it was resurrected from the Commodore 1581 Floppy disks to bring it back to exactly the way it was in 1993. Everything from BBS Numbers to Login messages are exactly the same. Only difference is I didn’t bring back the large User list or message bases, and it is running at 19.2k instead of 2400 bps. The file libraries are all the same which include a TON of SID music, and a lot of now hard to find utilities and other items. This BBS is the original Wrong # ][ BBS where Image BBS SysOp’s came to get support (yes we also have a VERY LARGE Image BBS File library also.
Come see the old then when you are done login to Wrong Number IV to witness the new!!

one mark a dial, oldest first — green answered, red did not. 62 kept, since ; the directory calls every board every night and remembers six months of them.

no picture before login, only text: shown whole, as a caller meets it, and never cut into a tile. every screen this board has drawn for a caller before login — 1 so far, since . a board that changes its welcome art keeps every screen here; one we stop meeting on our regular calls is let go after three visits and six months. the art belongs to its sysop and its artists.
