My friend Dragos sent me the PAL for Knights of the Round.
The chip is marked as KR63B and found in the usual position on the B board.
This file was the one found in MAME but he has actually tested it so I don’t see a reason why not to add it.

Thanks to Dragos for testing this

My mate bought a Spectrum+ off eBay recently and it didn’t work.
All we got on powering up was this

First thing I did was check the voltages. They all seemed fine so on with the next test.
The ULA was the only chip that was socketed so I quickly replaced it with a known good one. Still the same fault.

To save myself some time I thought I would desolder the Z80 CPU in order to use the Fluke 9010. Turns out the CPU was at fault and on fitting a new one we got this (bad picture, I know)

Anyway, I carried out the very simple composite mod and this is pretty much all done. Another Spectrum saved

I added 3 more sets of untested PALs today.
The games are
A.S.O (Armoured Scrum Object)
Cachat
Car Action – bootleg of Burnin Rubber

As always with these ones from unknown sources, they are untested and may or may not work. Let me know if you try any of them.

Bubble Bobble PAL testing

Thanks to Channelmaniac for testing out one of the Bubble Bobble PALs.
Ive added the individual file to the list but left the .zip file up as untested if anyone feels like testing the other 2 out. They both look like good dumps so fingers crossed they work too.

The file is still in PAL format and will need to be converted to GAL if needed.

Thanks to Smitdogg and Charles MacDonald from The Dumping Union we have another one of the PALs found in the CPS2 B boards.
This is untested at the moment so if anyone can test please let me know how it goes.

Thanks
