Re: Gold Fish Zeddy
I changed the caps and added a heatsink to the ULA
It now seems to be operating without the screen artifacts
I'll swap the 7805 for a switch mode unit so I can stop burning myself on the glowing heatsink.

Thanks for the pointers

I was having a frustrating time tuning it in so I did a quick trawl and found the transistor - resistor composite mod. Almost identical mod to the speccy one so I carried it out and hey presto a half d...

Hi Everyone
Hi all
Another retroputer collector joins the fold.
I've been collecting 8-bit machines on and off for about 20years.
Mostly Acorn but I am fond of Zeddys n Speccys.
Kind Regards
Marcus
