Falcon 030:what’s this ?

Post by Sinis »

Hi everybody,

I just found my Graal as an old Falcon 030. Looking for the RTC problem I saw a strange component next to it :

Do you have any idea of what is this ? What for ? You have to know that 2 pairs of cinches have been added to the existing ports : no link IMHO but you’ll know better than me.

Thank you very much !
