New video now live! I visited the recent #Telford #hamradio #Hamfest in #Shropshire, hosted by https://tdars.org.uk/ & had to try very hard not to buy things! https://youtu.be/S7Kx6B8Gil0

A fix or rather an upgrade to USB-C power for the 'The C64'... I've been struggling with reliability unit due to the flakey Micro USB socket. This mod which fits a USB-C power port to a 'The C64' fixing the power issues and allowing the use of Raspberry Pi 4/5 style PSUs

#Acorn #RISCPC total rebuild / upgrade part 3 is now live https://youtu.be/R7Njn77ix0o

Well it worked today.... probably wont work tomorrow once in #miltonkeynes! Looking forward to attending @tnmoc for the #Acorn #Econet #LAN party event! https://www.tnmoc.org/events/econet-lan-party-2025-1 #RISC_OS #DOSBOX #Gilder

@thejpster Alas im not able to come to Swindon im afraid...
Take your point... Lest say its a RISC PC shaped ARM box that wont leak battery juice everywhere!

A huge thank you to Andy Marks of @RISCOSbits for kindly donating a custom #RISC_OS 5 ROM image allowing my #Acorn RISCPC to use #NVMe SSD natively - meaning the machine now runs entirely solid state. This build should be at @tnmoc next month & @computermuseum in November!

Correction * It was / is 14230KHz

Also been doing some #SSTV #Shortwave #DX ing ... for the very first time, using a low end receiver & #Raspberrypi 400 to decode the signals... basically over the air amateur #HAMradio tv stations. All on the 20meter band around 14320KHz
