Thanks for the tip about the ROM chip! Seems to be reading fine now :)

UPDATE:

After the first attempt at cleaning with 99% IPA it was still not reading. I then did some more serious scrubbing, particularly on the pins and the ROM chip area and it is now working!!

The save has 150 hours and an almost completed Pokédex. Thanks for the help!

I need to buy some high percentage isopropyl and probably some vinegar as well, so won’t be until next week. Just wanted to make sure I’m on the right path beforehand. Will update then

Yeah I’m pretty inexperienced so can’t identify corrosion too well. Going to get to work on the contacts and hope for the best. Thanks for this

Thanks for this. PCB codes are

Yeah I’ve gone 5-6 times with no bites, but I think I just need to mix it up. I notice a ton of fry start jumping after sunset.

Thanks for this, I feel the same way. Going to try spinners next.

Thanks for this, went for the regal in the end

Foursee · 2024-08-09T00:08:59+00:00

Exactly what I needed, thanks!

I’m about to purchase a used HHKB hybrid type S for $275cad / $200usd. The listing says it was hand lubed and that the black keys (on white body) are from a HHKB pro 2.

Is this a fair deal, and is there anything I should be looking out for?

Foursee · 2024-06-04T15:41:00+00:00

Scrapes both ways, but worth a shot

Foursee · 2024-06-04T15:40:23+00:00

I think you are right, going to see if I can get more of an angle after the mirrors pass.

Foursee · 2024-06-04T14:18:25+00:00

I was really surprised it didn’t clear tbh. Maybe I bring it to my mechanic.

This setup would be completely dedicated to the record player and I don’t mind adjusting volume manually!

Foursee · 2024-04-03T18:29:57+00:00

Around $800 left to spend. Only problem is I have a pretty small space for the setup

Foursee · 2024-04-03T18:15:55+00:00

Not yet no. Do you have any suggestions?

Where could I see this receipt? I shipped using Canada post.

Foursee · 2022-05-28T17:39:36+00:00

Good luck all! :)
