Kempston Disc Interface for ZX Spectrum

I don´t think there´s a Spectrum/Wanted section, so I post it here. Hope that´s okay.

I´m looking for a Kempston Disc Interface for my Spectrum. Any offers? Thank you!

Re: Memotech Keyboard

I was looking for one for ages and finally found one. The white keys are a bit yellowed, but everything works just nicely. I have to say, the Memotech is THE keyboard for the ZX81.

Thanks Andy! It would be great if the board worked on any Zeddy. Nevertheless, a great piece of hardware and a cool game. Unbelievable what can be achieved these days.

I then tried the ZX81 equipped with the ZX8-CB on a different monitor - same result as yesterday.

Re: If you like your submarine simulations fast, arcadey,...

I have an update. It´s clear that the PSU is not the bad guy and it´s also clear that the UDG4rZXpand is not defective - the reason for the glitches and the vertical lines is still a mystery to me. I first tried two other PSUs - no change. I first tried an unmodified ZX81 on a super-old television a...

Re: If you like your submarine simulations fast, arcadey,...

I do have some basic soldering skills, but I´m far away from being good. I can replace a transistor or do a composite mod, maybe replace a faulty chip, but that´s about it. I´ll do some more testing as time allows and I will try to get one of my other Zeddys tested with the UDG4ZXpand and the ZXPand...

Re: If you like your submarine simulations fast, arcadey,...

Cleaned the edge connector and updated to latest ZXpand+ FW 1.12 - no change. I do have another Zeddy with Composite Mod (ZX8-CB), but that one refuses to work with the ZXpand at all. I have two more ZX81, but un-modded and my displays are too modern to handle the RF signal. I believe I can see two ...

Why do I see such graphical glitches? I use a UDG4ZXPand and a ZXPand+
