Finally! No mouser package, but I was able to find all the needed ceramic caps in my junk boxes, and the last missing item, the sliding switch, arrived today from China, so my all-socketed C64 is finally up and running with a new RF modulator replacement. I'll have to submit to the same treatment one of my shortboards next year.
As soon as they're available again, I'll also buy a lumacode encoder for this C64, and will probably go for a sidkick pico too. The SID in here doesn't sound terribly good.
I also built a few KungFu Flash carts, so it's time to play around a bit... Any pointers to nice C64 games on itch.io, people?
