Just found out my QSB RGB mod for Master System 2 has been ripped off. This is why I stopped coming on X. The console no one was interested in, that was described by the modding community as "a cheap children's toy". That's a direct quote & why I focused on designing for it.
Here it is. My SEGA Master System 2 no-wire passive RGB video mod kit. Super clean & super easy to install, & super robust. QSB PCB has pads to change the RGB Enc' subcarrier which will work in conjunction with my jailbar-fix/PAL-NTSC switcher mod. #segamastersystem#mastersystem

For the region mod, Consoles Unleashed has a very convenient no-wire version. In the process, I fixed a trace which might have been broken for a long time
Installing that region-free mod from @ConsoleMods . Just requires to remove the stock clock, cut a couple of region jumper traces and a reset button trace, and wire up a few things up. It also replaces the stock LED with a tri-colour one so you know which region you are in
Not sure what happened here. 4 days from UK to Canada using the standard national post services. What a rare phenomenon. Every single person in that chain of events was on their A game. Crazy. The order was made Sunday night.
If no one understands how amazing that is, here's one I sent in the same batch to a UK address. How can Bradford UK to Chipping Norton UK take the same amount of time as Bradford UK to Kitchener Canada? It makes no bloody sense.
This is the Radiotron Designers Handbook. First published in 1934 as a 40 page booklet. This is the 1957 edition. It's the bible for amplifier design. I would love to be able to build guitar amps one day.
Following a checklist from ConsolesUnleashed, I finally traced the fault to a broken trace between PIN 7 of IC9 and JP10. The customer must have accidentally cut it while doing the JP10 cut, and I didn't see it. I restored the trace and the console started to work as intended

I love how WooCommerce, Etsy, & Ebay orders automatically go into my Royal Mail account ready for printing. Makes things so much quicker & easier. What I didn't account for though is people putting their postcode in address line 1 or county as England. Back to manual checking.
Someone reviewed my no wire SEGA 32X region mod & said they had to cut it to fit. It was unnecessary. As can be seen in these photos, the 32X motherboard does not sit flat against the cart adapter screw blocks. There is a gap larger than 0.8mm in which my mod sits with no stress.
