Hi guys,

seen a Classic II on eBay for spares and repair cheap. Though it maybe useful for spares for my SE/30.  is the anologue A/B board and screen compatible? As it was cheap enough im considering it if they’re interchangeable?

No, not interchangeable at all, completely different analog boards. The CRT is compatible if you swap the yoke out.

The Classic II has a different analog board than the SE/30. The tubes themselves are swappable too but the yokes are different.

Edit: Johnnya101 beat me  😉

Thanks guys thats what I suspected, photos weren’t clear enough. Its the A/B board/power supply I’d like most as spares the screen would just be a bonus. I won’t bother then.

cheers 🙂

The SE and SE/30 analog boards and PSUs are the same though.
