Wanted STE motherboard

Post by SophieRose »

My STE has the high pitched background noise problem and is quite prominent so I'm after a motherboard that doesn't exhibit this if anyone has one.

Have you had a look at this: https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/atari/last/ ... /index.htm?

I don't think @exxos has them in store any more (I did have a quick look, and I'm sure they used to be there) but it may be something you can replicate with discrete components.
Collector of many retro things!
800XL and 65XE both with Ultimate1MB,VBXL/XE & PokeyMax, SIDE3, SDrive Max, 2x 1010 cassette, 2x 1050 one with Happy mod, 3x 2600 Jr, 7800 and Lynx II
Approx 20 STs, including a 520 STM, 520 STFMs, 3x Mega ST, MSTE & 2x 32 Mhz boosted STEs
Plus the rest, totalling around 50 machines including a QL, 3x BBC Model B, Electron, Spectrums, ZX81 etc...

It's usually caused by bad power supplies. Just wondering if you've tried another, or getting one re-capped?

PSU can be bad or do you mean audio ? It's a common problem on STEs. My DAC fix PCB is in the PCB forum now.
