- It could also be that the MC1488 and/or MC1489 are not working ok. These are
- RS232 drivers (5V <-> 12V levels). They are very cheap !
- Unfortunately they are directly soldered to the board so you have to cut them
- out to replace them.
-
- Paula controls :
-
- - Serial Send (TxD) and Receive (RxD)
- - Sound
- - Mouse/Joystick/Lightpen
- - Some disk functions
-
- Hope this is of any help !
