In testing the unit I found that it would power up, given a 9VAC supply, but when measuring the nominal +5VDC output on the "parallel" port I found it to be 4.56 VDC. This is within range, for TTL signal purposes, but less than ideal.
I have a suspicion that the root of the problem lies in the capacitors associated with rectification, a couple of 2200 uF Nichicon electrolytics that must be 40 years old by now. I'd like to ask for some advice: Whether to replace them or leave them be?
Thanks for your replies,
