From the project
An easier to solder version of the Lumafix board, components spaced out a bit more to make things easier on the beginner (mostly meaning me). Can also be used to bypass noisy signals on motherboard, wireing directly to modulator replacement.
Based on Lumafix64 by e5frog over at the lemon64.com forums, this is a somewhat simplified version that should be easier to solder together for beginners with access to a reasonable set of soldering tools. Gone are the slightly confusing surface mount options that's mostly only suitable for those with more advanced skills or aim to have them premade with components from a fabrication company.
