Hello all!  I just got my 16Mhz board and I'm shocked!

The board has no dip switches or volume control.  How is the volume changed?

It's a sound option using the test switch button , and reset key to get to the volume settings.

That's going to be great for me! I have to adjust the volume often  --- when my wife comes down and watches TV while I play,  I have to lower the volume.  Now i stuff a sock in the coin tray to muffle the sound.

well,
One cool little mod I saw had a small potentiometer (volume knob) attached to the speaker wires and was just barely sticking out of a tiny slit on the left side of his cabinet. Inside, you'd see the the back of the knob with the wires running alongside with the button harness.
The knob was screwed nicely to the interior wall.
With his left hand, he reached over and adjusted the volume! From the outside while playing!
Was pretty cool and simple really.
Somebody's gonna come up with a mod using the remote control I made a while back to adjust the sound... Tongue Out

It makes much sense though - that pot on the mpu sure makes me nervous.


Any luck with the eproms?

The knob on one of my 10Mhz boards is so hard to move I almost need a screwdriver.  I labeled the tray so I don't mess with it.   The other 10Mhz board I have the volume moves nice and freely.

I'd probably leave that alone too. I'm not sure which product is safe to spray on the pot to try to clean it, maybe one of the techs will know. None of my six boards have that issue. Of course, these boards are still cheap enough that it might not be worth the bother.

Radio Shack used to sell a product called tuner cleaner.
For those of you under 40 - TVs used to have these 12 position dials on them called a tuner.
After a good number of years (7+) a good shot of tuner cleaner made the contacts like new again.
It often improved the reception as sometimes you had to jiggle the knob a bit to improve the contact.

You could use this stuff for any pot or slide switch with equally good effect.

Our Canadian RadioShacks are now called The Source by circuit city and you can't even get a can of compressed air anymore.....

I know what you are talking about. I worked in Radio Shack from the age of 15 to 23 and I remember selling the stuff. I miss the store the way it was. Now most stuff must be purchased online.  I like to walk in the store look around and physically hold the stuff.

It used to be a store for guys to browse in, but that was a long time ago. To be fair to RS, half the time I'd go in there with a ham friend and browse for half an hour and then spend a whopping $0.59 on a pack of resistors or some such thing. We weren't exactly paying their light bills.

I love that video.
It's amazing that a person can spew out a gigantic load of  censored  and some people will actually believe it!

Took me a while to find the link.

For some reason it was buried deep in my Obama clips.  stir the pot / get cooking stir the pot / get cooking stir the pot / get cooking
