Remove any crystal oscillators before ultrasonic cleaning your boards. Those are very sensitive and the crystals in them are easily destroyed. Probably what hit those SE/30s. |

No, but that looks PERFECT for my batt-bombed IIsi 'board! Now i'm no expert but I think that one might have a bad '030 too...... |

I think that one might have a bad '030 too.... NO WAY!! I figured the torched-on caramel would SURELY protect it from the 1 hour session in the US bath? NO? 🥺 |
