the dirtiest PCB I&#8217;ve seen for a while.\u00a0 You can see along the top where I cleaned it to redo the solder on that connector, someone else had done a pitiful job of it previously, it was dead but repaired by cleaning up the bad reflows and replacing the CPU board, old one really is toast.\u00a0 I can&#8217;t clean the whole top without killing the METAL BLACK serial stickers, which would be a shame.\u00a0 For sale now.\u00a0 Oh time for a pro-tip.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve seen a lot of F2 sets now where those connectors have been reflowed, don&#8217;t do it.\u00a0 First try cleaning the connectors, you can get folded card in both sides and it&#8217;s usually the problem.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.system11.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/2601_metal_black.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1346\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.system11.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/2601_metal_black-300x217.jpg\" alt=\"2601_metal_black\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ordyne &#8211; this is an interesting one.\u00a0 This arrived from Japan with jailbars through all the sprites, I traced it to a chip which was up at an angle from the factory, one leg barely making contact.\u00a0 In fact the PCB generally appears to be poorly built, several chips at angles, the customs on the top side look reflowed, but in reality they&#8217;ve been hand fitted with a hot air station as opposed to factory assembled.\u00a0 The revised System 2 mainboard allowed for larger sound RAM but in reality this was never fitted, and as such the sockets were never full size, but they are on this one.\u00a0 The factory sockets are mostly made up of smaller ones placed next to eachother, every single custom is socketed (very unusual for the lower board), and there&#8217;s a sound pin header which normally doesn&#8217;t exist and someone incorrectly used as a jumper breaking half the sound effects.\u00a0 The amp heatsink was soldered down instead of screwed, the interboard connectors are fitted the wrong way around and one of the sound regulators is the wrong part format while looking like it&#8217;s never been touched.\u00a0 Serial number C00009, basically this is an early test board for the revised System 2 set.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.system11.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/2601_ordyne.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1347\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.system11.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/2601_ordyne-300x226.jpg\" alt=\"2601_ordyne\" width=\"300\" height=\"226\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Dancing Eyes &#8211;
