James Bilsbrough<p>Today I was blown away by the generosity of a friend. </p><p>This beautiful machine, boxed, was my reward for just helping his mum setup her new iPhone.</p><p>It’s a <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Sinclair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sinclair</span></a> ZX <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/Spectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Spectrum</span></a> +3 - with the 3” FDD.</p>
Nacho<p>Ya he recibido la nueva <a href="https://frankenwolke.com/tags/MicroHobby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MicroHobby</span></a> y aunque sólo he leído por ahora la mitad puedo confirmar que esto no es un sacacuartos sin alma para señores nostálgicos de mediana edad. Es un producto hecho con un cariño infinito y un profundo respeto al original (no solo mantiene la numeración sino que incluso tienen el mismo ISBN), sorprendentemente lleno de contenido para tratarse de un nicho dentro de una afición de nicho. La única pega que le puedo poner es que las demos son solo para la versión en digital con lo cual en papel pierdes una parte de la experiencia. Encantado estoy, no solo seguiré suscrito sino que posiblemente me pase a papel más digital para tener nuevos viejos juegos para el Spectrum :flan_hearts: </p><p><a href="https://frankenwolke.com/tags/zxspectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>zxspectrum</span></a> <a href="https://frankenwolke.com/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://frankenwolke.com/tags/retrogaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrogaming</span></a> <a href="https://frankenwolke.com/tags/spectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spectrum</span></a> <a href="https://frankenwolke.com/tags/sinclair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sinclair</span></a></p>

andabata<p>Still on the spectrum. Socketed loads of ics. Tested them. It's still flakey. Swapped TR4, TR5 with a different speccy. Still a massive 1.6v ripple on the 12v. Replaced most of the caps. Only wants to run the diagram. Refuses to run any other rom. I think this one is cursed.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sinclair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sinclair</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/zx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>zx</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/spectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spectrum</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/speccy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>speccy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vintagecomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vintagecomputing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a></p>

andabata<p>Bit forward, bit backward. Lower ram seems to test ok now. But now I get random nmi or random key presses without keyboard connected. ULA works fine in a different spectrum. I might end up socketing everything. But that feels a bit of a defeat. It also seems very picky about the eproms I use.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sinclair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sinclair</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/zx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>zx</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/spectrum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spectrum</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/speccy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>speccy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vintagecomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vintagecomputing</span></a></p>

andabata<p>It doesn't make sense to me, why would it fail all 8 bits. Unless both ic4 and ic5 (both ls157) are bad. Or the diagrom isn't working properly (which i really doubt).
