Yep and for more than 4 minutes. No sound at the moment though. I'm trying to track down the 1d4 schematics so I can check the traces and connections.
I'm going to be replacing all the capacitors anyway shortly, I think there has been some leakage around various ones.
I've been doing some checks about the audio failure, and the voltages are good around the c303 and c304 capacitors.
However, apparently the r302 resistor feeds the audio amplifier and I'm only getting 2.4v instead of 12v.
It could be a red herring, obviously, which is why I'm after the schematics so I can check the traces.

You discovered my inspiration!
Mentioning Red Dwarf, they are filming a new 6 part series, and have only recently sorted out an audience. We've missed the chance now, but it would have been great to go along and see it live. Although I'm not that huge a fan of the show after the 6th series.
Anyway, I digress....

.....LOL! Love it!
Am I the only one thinking of Red Dwarf at this point?
(Can't remember which episode - maybe Tikka to Ride? Lister opens Kryten's head and uses a prop very much like this!)
