Re: New 8300 and Colour Box owner :D
I think it was your post about voltage boosting that I saw, but that's only usually necessary if the circuit is pulling more current than the PSU can provide. In my case my bench PSU sits at 400mA with the pack fitted. It's current limited to 1A so if the machine did need more current it would be o...

Re: New 8300 and Colour Box owner :D
I do remember having to put more power into the Lambda 8300, when I attached a Colour Pack.
My color monitor since has died, and my Lambda 8300 has become flaky, so I won't be able to test it now.

Re: SOS - Reviving a Power 3000 tape
Tried it with three ROMS ... Reportedly works with the orginal V1 (LAM10061.BIN) ROM, however my EightyOne v1.40 doesn't work with this ROM (no programs will load or save although I can type in and run programs). With the Updated ROM, the game crashes with 16K, and runs with 2K but with visual dist...

Re: Zx81plus38 rev1.10 video issues
If I put an oscilloscope on that pin I should see a typical 5v to 0v squared movement coming from either the maxduino or a properly volume controlled analog tape output in order to get a reasonable chance of a program to be loaded. When I have used the TZXduino with a regurlar ZX81, I have voltages...

I didn't know there existed dedicated type in magazines in Denmark. Thank you for sharing. I'll study the old magazines.

Re: ZX81 1983 Issue 3 Board, which has two initial problems.
1st Problem The keys 1,0,Q,P,A, Enter, Shift and Space fail to be recognised. I have checked for continuity from the various solder pads on the mainboard to the keyboard connectors on the ZX81 and they all seem ok. You can try to disconnect the keyboard, and short one of the solder pads from the 5-...

Re: Game SQUEZEE PLAY a machine code analysis
Great work.
The program was made by Danish company Scan-Bit Software and was sold in the largest toystore BR-Legetøj (B.R.'s play toys) where they also sold the Lambda 8300.

Re: zx81 ula anyone ??
On this post, they say you should use Etsy when located in EU. https://sinclairzxworld.com/viewtopic.php?t=4407 Etsy states on their homepage, that if the seller buys the shipping label from Etsy, then the IOSS electronic registration is sent by Etsy, thus the receiver (you) will not receive an extr...
