Then, popped on the back the SD card loader, with a built in Kempston joystick port. Lastly, loaded an SD card with .tap goodies. And it works like a dream! I must try to find a decent archive of homebrew and hacks for the Spectrum, lots out there apparently and some are pretty cool.

But, since having the now modded 7800, 2600 and Spectrum all outputting composite (sorry Retr0) I have to put my remaining spare Bandridge Scart Switcher into action, and the cables are needed! Kerb is giving me a sweet 21" trini too, to hook them into, so they'll look their best!

(First time trying that ) Turned it on and it worked ! with a slight graphics issue on characters and the word super on the title screen when it zooms in. Like the main character is 4 heads instead of having a body etc. I couldn’t believe it when it powered on , it was dead before hand.
