ZX81 composite video mod was a success :blobcatOwo: #retrocomputing

keyboard seems a little iffy though, i’ll have to get that sorted out

@goatsarah I haven’t tried it yet, annoyingly seem to have misplaced my speccy video cables

I do have an old CRT tv with an analogue tuner thankfully, but I just don’t care for the hassle of getting dodgy old RF modulators to tune in properly 😅

I should probably do the composite video mod on this ZX81 sometime hmmmm

vague memories of Nora telling me she had to add a little amp circuit too, to take the load off the ULA and stop it overheating

on the other hand my ZX Speccy has seemed fine so far with the lazy video mod and no amp, but I should probably look into that regardless

got some more computers courtesy of someone very lovely here on the fediverse

ZX81, C64 and PET #retrocomputing

@goatsarah @deejvalen Well I’m local to Cambridge and not very busy so practically anytime, I could probably pick up tomorrow?

@deejvalen @goatsarah uuhhh yes hello, I would be very interested
