Hi, I have seen a HP48GX ROM Version P with something like P-Cop...
See the attached picture, is this ROM version normal? I have never seen that before.
Thanks
It would be easier to reply if the picture actually was attached...

Hi, sorry, I attached it but I do not know why it has not worked, trying again...
No mystery here:
The VERSION command returns the following two string objects to stack levels 2 and 1, respectively:
2: "Version HP48-X"
1: "Copyright HP 1993"
where X represents the actual ROM revision number.
Now, you only have to inadvertently hit the [+] key and both strings end up being concatenated, which looks like this:
1: "Version HP48-XCop…
(In the case of string objects, the system decompiler responsible for stack objects does not add line feeds even if you are in multi-line mode, which is the default setting (system flag -52 clear). So the result will always be one single line, if necessary truncated to 19 characters, including the opening double-quote delimiter and the closing ellipsis.)

It's not my calculator or picture, I got it from a seller (I have 48SX and 50G and want a 48GX ROM R), and I should have noticed that (banging head against table)...my stack abilities are a bit rusty :-(
Thanks.
Please add my calculator rom to the list, since this will make it the first GX on the list. The date sequence is unusual as rom version M was still being installed in 48G's at the time, according to the list.
48gx P 3342S10281 Singapore 1993 42
I can email photos or video for verification, let me know where to send it.
A couple years ago I had a guy replace the screen with one from a 38g and all is very nice on it now. On average, the clock speed is 3748864.
