I installed an Accusonics Super-19 ROM chip into my H19 this weekend,
and at the end of this article is the TERMCAP that takes advantage
of most of the new features.  This chip makes the H19 act very much
like the VT100, plus it adds a feature or two.  It is available at
the Heathkit dealers, but it's not shown any their catalogs.

My impressions are that it is worth the $50 if you wished that you
had bought a different terminal but don't want to go out and buy a
new one too soon.  The point which would really make it worth while
is the availability of the alternate character-generator chips
which produce APL characters and 160 x 100 pixel graphics.  For
those of us who occasionally need to work with VMS, it makes EDT
a bit more pleasant.

But there is no address for Accusonics in the package from Heath,
and the sales staff has no inkling of how to get the address, other
than writing Heath, and I would like to not wait for their reply.
So if anyone has any comments about this chip, the character
generator, and especially how to get in contact with Accusonics,
or a place selling these other chips, I would greatly appreciate
hearing from you.
