Re: Royal mail getting rid of CN22 now it seems

We went through this in Switzerland a year or two ago. The next step is that the post office charges you if you didn’t fill in the digital one first and the post office employee looks very annoyed too!

No, the gerbers were just offset a lot which the board house didn’t like. I just removed the offsets and aligned them.

Re: CT63 only starts from 030 mode

It’s ok for the Falcon alone +/- CT60. If using heavy peripherals then might need higher current.

Re: CT63 only starts from 030 mode

Maybe you can ask Pavel (centuriotech) about this one? Seems like an interesting discovery. Forgot to post back here, I discussed this with Pavel at your suggestion and he is looking into it. He told me there is actually a wide trace of >50mil width of copper for 5V. Though the routing changed to a...

Re: CT63 only starts from 030 mode

Today I tried to get my NetUSBee to work in 68060 mode, using the instructions from: https://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?p=434632#p434632 and https://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?p=436802#p436802 It works, but I used a 4.75V MCP101 which led to a discovery I didn't notice before. I'd been...

Re: Recommendations - Atari Falcon with CT63

I found some of the Traco TOP 60316's here. One they had in stock and another from their supplier arrived a little later: https://www.reichelt.com/ch/en/switching-power-supply-open-frame-3-3-v-dc-5-2-v-dc-12-v-d-top-60316-p124942.html?&trstct=pos_0&nbc=1 Now if they can get more, I don't kno...

Re: Tidying up a Falcon & CT60 combo (power supply & drive)

That pin is explicitly cut on my ct60, guess it’s normal.

Falcon NVRAM test utility?

I was wondering, is there a decent Falcon NVRAM test program? I gather the diagnostic card resets NVRAM but it only seems to have an RTC test, not an NVRAM test. Ending up with some NVRAM errors logged by TOS (with a decent battery) and I'm wondering if its because the content is bad or because it p...
