- Modifications for the Master 128
-
- On Master 128 issue 1 boards a 470 PicoFarad capacitor should be connected
- between the east leg of R137 and the east leg of R153 which are located
- directly to the east of the modulator. Connections should be made on the
- component side of the PCB with the leads of the 470 PicoFarad capacitor
- being soldered directly to the leads of the two resistors.
-
- On Master 128 issue 2 boards link LK11 should be made.
-
-
- Modifications for the BBC Model B and B+
-
- On Issue 1, 2 & 3 boards a 470 PicoFarad capacitor should be fitted between
- the emitter of Q9 (identified by an "e" next to one leg) and the base of Q7
- (the central leg).
-
- On Issue 4 and later, the capacitor is on board and can be connected simply
- by fitting link 39 which may be found next to the modulator in the far right
- hand corner of the PCB.
-
- On the BBC Model B+ link S26 should be made.
