L2 replacement board - a HUGE recommendation

[John Fante]

Just a quick recommandation to all users with display issues on their belowed EP.

I have had massive issues with my old trusty EP128. Connected to a TV via scart it worked but the picture was a bit fluffy in the edges. However, when I connected it to my RetroTink5X - that normally handles everything and gives ultra sharp HDMI output - the screen was wobbling and the frequencies was all over the place. See example here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/msanhpyo1c5nvzp/BouncyEP.MOV?dl=0

Adjusting L2 improved the wobbling so when I found the L2 replacement board from Kvacko I decided to give it a go. And by god I am glad I did

My picture is now sharp and the frequecies stable. See here.

I can really recommend the L2. The install was easy. And the price of 22 euro including shipping to Denmark was very reasanoble.

Nice!
Originally we thought only of machines with broken L2 coil, but after the first tests we found this solution also much better than the working original Nick clock circuit.
