Of course I did'n get the super performance with all my tapes. Probably I have some "lucky" cartridge.
Can you tell me please which software did you use for this test?
P.S.
I finally succeed in demagnetize my mdv heads, so I'll run your speed test soon

Re: PSU alternative?
On the contrary, the service manual says: "supplies 9 volts d.c. at 2 amps and 44 volts peak-to-peak a.c. to the board input on connector". Is this a mistake (or a big misunderstanding of mine)?1024MAK wrote:As I said above, you would need two transformers.

Will your check be invasive? If you can ensure your check will not affect the board integrity, maybe someone could lend you his supergoldcard...tetroid wrote: to check the original SGC in working order.

Error message on #1
One of my QLs (unexpanded, JM Rom) after trying to access a (likely defective?) MDV cartridge, doesn't print the "bad or changed medium" on #0 area at the bottom of the screen but on #1. Why this behaviour?

Re: QL Tinkering
Cristian - thanks again, You're welcome! I think its possibly an issue with available memory. For your information: I made the test on an expanded QL (896 Kb) using the SCART connector on a 21inch TV/Monitor.
