i did what you said but only came up with some technical info that i didnt really understand, being new to this stuff

I thought you could just add a potentiometer on and it would amplify the signal but i guess i was wrong.

So just to clarify - what i need is a way to adjust an amplification, that ...

im rigging up some better speakers to listen to music through for my cell phone that will be running through the headphone jack, and i want to add a seperate volume adjuster on them in addition to the one on the phone.

i know i need a potentiometer for this but i dont really know what type to get ...

yeah, schematics would be great. im also on vacation and havent had a chance to re do the one i built to see if i just soldered something wrong. but id rather try something different that i know has been sucessful for someone else first than re do one that has failed. if you could draw it up it ...

i built the circuit exactly like in bens book. i think it might have to do with the soldering job i did so im going to redo everything. was your amplifier like the one in bens book? i also dont know if i attached the phono jacks right. you just attach the wire directly to the soldering point right?

i made the video amplifier and hooked it all up to my nes motherboard. then i made a temporary battery connection and put phono jacks on the end of the video and audio connections to see if it would work. but when i powered it up, it was all black and white and wavy. i could here the audio, but ...

so for the nes, im going to make my own portable version. and on page 121, for number 5, it tells you where to connect the positive end of the battery. but where do i put the negative end? do i ground it directly to the motherboard or what?

i think it'll be fine without the shield. whenever im doing any mods to my nes, i always hook it up and test it without the shield and it works fine

how do you make a portable wii. you cant take the motion sensors around with you.

for your avatar, do you just type the location where it is on your computer?
examples?

thanks

on an ac adapter, it tells the input and output power specs. so im able to use different ones with my nes. however, with the dc adapter i have for use in the car, it doesnt have the specs on it. is there any say i could find these out? do i just plug it in and use a multimeter on it?

thanks

thanks, it was red and brown

when you push the power button on the nes, what cables are you joining to turn it on? i tried tracing them back but i cant tell. i thought it was yellow and brown. what i want to do is replace the original switch and put in a smaller, simpler on/off switch. just one for power - no reseting - and i ...

for the portable nes, i got to the part where you start bending the aluminum for the front of the case. it gives instructions to cut the metal for the on/off switch but where do i get the switch itself? i dont see it in the list of parts he had in the beginning of the chapter
