Direct Digital Audio Mod install for Super Famicom... Went a little overboard in editing a video for a simple little mod but was fun capturing the audio and putting it together anyway.

I got sent a PC Engine GT someone bought hoping a lucky cap replacement would do the trick. I couldn't spend this money on a "junk" item myself without opening. Turned out it needed more than just ew caps to fix it (surprise!) Quickly turned into repair job. No life. 1/3

Can't say I do these very often. I much prefer to work on retro stuff but anyway I did one of these today.

Bought this ZX Spectrum computer the other day from my local Marketplace. Couldn't pass it up with the box. Composite video mod done first so don't have RF scan for picture. Failed to boot. Lower RAM fault in IC11.

IC11 replaced. Boots fine now :⁠-⁠) input probs of course. So new keyboard membrane to order. Stuff like recap and replace old voltage regulator to do still. Grabbed a few Bluetooth receiver boards to try that mod where you can load programs via phone app.
