There were a good many Apple //e boards in my area at the time, but none ran on a //c.  I believe the //e had a build in clock, but for some reason that wasn't the case for the //c.  You had to buy an external clock - which came out later.

I totally forgot about 40 column mode.  I ran my Apple //c BBS on software called Apple-Net on the ProDOS OS.
