Howdy lads,


I'm hereby offering my spare BBC micro for sale.
Hoped to sell it as a working unit, until one of the capacitors in the power supply blew up on me yesterday.
See this rant thread for some detail on how far i had gotten with testing the machine: https://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?67960-Ugh-the-lovely-smell-of-a-blown-capacitor


It comes with a 5.25" drive. The power connector on the drive is in dire need of replacement, see pics.
The beeb as well as the drive are pretty yellowed, and need a good clean.
And, to state the obvious: the PSU needs new caps.


I've also noticed a weird wire bridge thingie on the tape connector (rear of unit), see pics.

Asking 60 euro, plus postage, paid via paypal. (gift preferred, add 6% for goods payment)
 
Declaring interest.
Will PM in a bit.

Quick question - judging by the smell, was that an electrolytic cap that blew?
From experience, those leak all over the place once blown.
 
I presume so. Although i haven't opened the PSU up, suspect C1 or C2 has blown.
If wanted, i can open up the PSU and take some snaps up close.
 
There are 2 X2 Rifa filter caps that must be replaced.
0.1microf and 0.01microf
I recomend you replace C9 which is a small electrolytic too before you get startup issues

:)
 
Declaring interest 2nd in line pending postage to Austria.
UberFreak is working out some postage details, but if he withdraws, postage for Austria will be 16 euro, with tracking. (signed and/or heavily insured also possible, but that'd be pretty expensive, if you want me to get an exact quote on that, let me know)
 
Interest withdrawn, good luck to next ones in line and sorry for the delay.
