There has been quite a lot of talk about this recently. As I understand, it is the capacitors on the sio line on the 130xe, these need to be removed and the problem is solved

Your budgies are confusing the APE software. Pokey is talking at 19.2 k but the budgies are doing 57 k.

This is s.th. I never experienced during the last 30 years of running my A8s. In all of my XL/XE machines (PAL only) those capacitors are still where they have to be. And all machines work fine down to Pokey divisor 4 (Ultra Speed Plus OS), Pokey divisor 3 (ATARI OS and SDX 4.4x) or Pokey divisor 0 (ATARI OS and IDE+).

 

And it is no problem to connect a FTDI-SIO2PC(USB) and some 1050 Speedy at the same time without any modifications on the SIO side. This is my setup for making images.

 

So I am sure that this cannot be the reason for problems with those machines, at least on PAL machines.

 

P.S.: Of course all those "speeded" 1050s had to loose their SIO caps to work properly, which is also recommended for a stock 1050.
