Spectranet

For experts to discuss very technical stuff and newbies to ask why the Spectrum they bought off ebay doesn't work.

So I got the ZX-HD but unfortunately the cloned Spectranet is not compatible with it. Such a shame as it appears to work well in most other scenarios but I am locked in to whatever output I am able to get from composite which varies greatly across my spectrums. Anyway hope this helps someone who may find this in years to come :)
Sorry to reply to such an old thread but I am replying to my own post to say that the cloned spectranet does work with the ZX-HD. I am not sure what I was doing wrong before but I fired it all up yesterday and it just worked.

Only takes a speck of dirt to mess any "smart" peripherals up on the old edge connectors. Multiple devices requires a very calm chuntey field.

Hehe yes must have been something like that but hey all good. I’ll be writing my 2022 crap game using it… but first Christmas :-)
