7800 Modding questions

[Reaperman]

I'm unable to find the answers to these two items, probably due to some failure on my part. I've found mention of these mods, or occasionally a link to a dead external site, but I haven't found the step-by-step handholding that I need to get them done.

 

I've recently composite modded my 7800. I notice that the Pokey audio level is significantly lower than non-Pokey. I'm pulling Pokey from the top pin of C10, next to the channel select switch, and it's wired it directly to my audio output jacks. What do I need to do to fix my audio level issues?

 

I also have a 7800 that is not compatible with Supercharger (it seems to go into a reset loop). I've heard mention of a simple mod to fix this, but could not find it. How is this done, and could I get a link to it? Are there any down sides to this modification?

Thanks for the link, but understanding those diagrams is a little beyond my level. I think 'follow the photo' is about my limit.

It seems as simple as replacing some gate logic with a switch, but I have no idea where they're talking about.

 

I've heard that I might damage my supercharger in the system (both in that link and in the 7800 faq which I now notice also links there), do any of these fixes keep that from happening?

I just modded my 7800 today and the pokey audio level is low for me as well but everything else is working great. I've done some google searches but I haven't found a solution

Thanks for the link. That gives me something to order and try. I pull from a slightly different place, but from the sound of it, they're all about the same. Worst comes to worst, I throw the part back on and fully duplicate it.
