warr8or29's boards has been shipped back
Hi tbtorro,
I am interested to recap a Macintosh SE/30 that doesn't produce sound anymore and to do some socket repair + recap work in a A1000 cpu upgrade and a A1200 phase5 68040 to 68060 cpu upgrade. What's the next step to have this evaluated and done ? About recaps I have seen in Japan someone recaping Macintosh boards with tantalum caps to prevent future leaks what do you think about that?
Regards
Ruben
Hi Ruben, I'm sending a PM about your work details.Quote:

Thank you ! :-)
Today's assigment was an A3640 recap and checkup.

Work started on Amon_RA's A4000 Rev D. Unfortunately the audio right side is mute, probably due leaking filter caps cut some traces at the output:

Amon_RA's audio repair complete, lost one side due to corrosion caused by leaking capacitors.
The sound is nice and clear on both sides now, after and before:

Thought I would let everyone know that both my A1200 + A600 that tbtorro replaced the capacitors are like new and working great once more. As you see from the photos his work is excellent.
Super! Thanks! ☺ 👍👍👍Quote:
