For later ULAs I start with this position and then fine tune:-

Yellow lines added for clarity. ;)

Before adjusting I always take a photo of the current position. Very useful when it gets worse. :o
R1 is totally turned to the right then?

This is the recommended position when do you start the adjust but later it seems that should be turned to the left. Anyway, if do you have a good video signal it doesn't matter..
Just checked my order history on Sell My Retro and it appears I have fitted 24 like this! I have not had to move R1 much from there on any of them.

I believe PokeMon sets them up for one ULA type before sending them out...
So you should only need to adjust them slightly if using the same ULA type.

24 :shock:

No wonder he does not think I am his favourite customer anymore!

We’ll have to call you the Del Boy of the Zeddy world at this rate :lol:

I believe they are set up for the earlier ULAs. I tend to keep / not refurb those. They stay in the back of the three wheeler. :D

That's right, he adjust the circuits for the 184 ULA by defect, but I have had this one on my ZX81 and even so the first startup was the screen completely white. After playing with the resistors I get a very good image of course.

Well, finally I get an original C210 ULA for the second Zeddy and once installed is perfectly working.

Now is time to play with the TZXduino and the old software :D
