Of course I knew which byte it was. It was the Action! disk with the BBS stuff we were working on. Looking at the source code of one of the files, there was an inverse question mark where a colon or whatever should have been. Easy-peasy.
The XM301 was a bit of a poop device because it didn't have a power switch either (that was added in my mod), but the 1030 wasn't on the store shelves at the time because I would have opted for that instead because of its form factor. But I did find my machine and I remember taking the XM301 out and attached a spare SIO cable and routed it out the hole where the phone jack was. And it still has the Rambo XL board. It made me smile when I opened it up...
