Megaspectrum is dead :-(

Hello, All
With the computer and TV turned on, I plugged in the video cable (RCA). The video output booed.
- there is only noise on the screen. The spec itself works.
The board is Moscow128, the video is taken cunningly - it is removed from some abstracts on the diagram,
then it is mixed with logic 555. I connected it to the TV according to a b/w circuit - ground and
synchro(?). There was a black and white image on the screen.
Who died? Logic or something on the board?

Hello Ronin
Ron> are the wires coming off the video? :) well, further along the circuits - the board,
Ron> no soldering, capacitors have dried out...
The wires are fine. The computer has not been understood since normal operation.
Non-solders are also excluded. And it didn’t die right away. Synchro went out first
then the image disappeared. What could this mean?

Hello, spleen
Are the wires coming off the video? :) well, further along the circuits - board, unsoldered,
capacitors are dry...

I can only advise in the future to tie together the chassis of all devices
wire with a really large cross-section.

Where did you get the idea that the Spectrum booed? Hurry on TV.

Exactly. The video input on the TV is dead.
