Split up, we covertly sneak into The Hive of Darkness lair in our Koubus. Destroying the Hexmechs is the only way forward… and those machines are pumping them out at record speeds! We’ll disable them first if we can… four against many… I hope the others are doing alright!

In other news, I’ve opened my Saturn (This is COOL) and found it has a VA15 mainboard. I reflowed the AV port sockets with no change, so that did not resolve the jitter on this unit. The electrolytic capacitors were my next target because of their age, although age alone didn’t prove they were the fault. At least all the caps were through-hole, which was very surprising, and my Hakko 808 poked his nose out of the basket he had been sitting in. By the next Sakura Taisen stream the recap was complete and the visible flicker was gone. Stay tuned!

Also, I didn’t mention it above… we’re on to DISC 2 now! Woohoo! :-)
