Some folks at the pre- #hackadayeurope meetup were issued a buzzer to let them know when their pizza would be ready - ROOKIE MISTAKE. No FCC id tho :(
Next time we should go straight for the ROM dump. I wonder what would be the most portable tool for that task

And alive it is!
I wish #raspberrypi Zero 2W also had an exposed composite TV output on the top side, like the first Zero, and not on the bottom of the PCB. The soldered jumpers barely fit into the crystal C4Labs case I have - I'll need to come up with an alternative way to have a physically strong connection

Fun story: I got this tube from an old Cypriot guy living in a village nearby who is *really* into repairing old radio electronics and building/reatoring tube amplifiers from actual scrap - the kind that ended up in a scrapyard. His shack is absolutely crazy and gorgeous. If anyone is interested in buying a hand-wired restored tube amp, let me know and I'll hit him up haha

Couple weeks back I scored this beauty - Sakata SG-2000 Monochrome Character Display. I couldn't find a manual for it, but internet resources suggest that it's compatible with the Apple II family, and hence should require the same composite input as the Apple Monitor II.

I want to check if the poor thing is even alive and operational, and the only device in my place that can theoretically output a composite signal is a Pi Zero 2W. I'll need to solder half a cable to some test pads to get it out
