Managing Editor, and a member of OL' HACKERS. AGEING?f Most 1050 disk drives 4}?by now are getting older and showing their age. PerformanceC HsignsL of age are occasionally failure to format a 4}gdisk, failure to read a good file, noise and sometimes inserting strange symbols into your text.m Before you make 4}the upgrade you might want to check the condition of your power supply. Read the section DEVICES NEEDED and the 4}section VIII VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT. This will give you a good idea of the condition of your power supply and if the 4}upgrade is needed. Once you have made the upgrade the 1050 will be just like new gain, very reliable, quiet and4}" will last you a very long time.( There are two types of 1050 disk drives. One is the TANDON and the other is t4}nhe WORLD STORAGE. They are identical in most respects and are upgraded the same way. LABOR OF LOVEt You must 4}Ghave skills in soldering and unsoldering. Budget about 4 hours for each drive upgrade. This is a labor of love and 4};I would hesitate to impose on a friend with this project.B The description of the parts position is always with t4}he disk drive front facing you. The Printed Circuit Board will be referred to in this article as the PCB. DEVICES 4}NEEDED There are a few devices that you have to make yourself. You need TIE POINT EXTENDERS to read the voltage4}s. You cannot reach the tie points otherwise easily. Take a 5 in. black piece of thin solid hook up wire. R4}emove 1 in insulation from one end and 1/4 in insulation from the other end. Take the end with the longer expose4}d wire and wrap it about 5 or 6 times around a sewing needle so it forms a little spring. You will now be able to sli4}p this over the tie points on the PCB and be able to measure the voltages easily. Make two more exactly the same way 4}with different color wire.$ You will also need 4 SPLICERS. Take a very thin copper wire and wrap it about 10 4} times around a darning needle so it forms a spring about 1/4 long. Cut off the ends that are sticking out. Spl4}icers are used to connect together wire components for soldering. They are also commercially available as COLMAN SPLI4}"CERS #1345-H DISK DRIVE AGEING( What deteriorates in your disk drive is the power supply. The power supply is 4}like the heart of a human being that pumps blood to the organs. The power supply pumps D.C. voltages to all the I4}.C.'s and chips. This voltage has to be almost pure D.C. If there is a substantial A.C. component riding on top of the4} D.C. then your I.C.'s get confused and think they are receiving information pulses. A.C. or alternating current has4} a high and a low potential just like data pulses. That is the reason you have to upgrade your power supply to elimin4};ate the A.C. ripple current on top of the D.C. voltage.A iThe solid state I.C.'s and other solidm state devices 4}t will stay virtually like new if they receive the proper D.C. voltage and are protected from excessive heat.{ Wh4}Gile your disk drive is disassembled you will also clean all contacts, read-write head, belts, pulleys and m5}oving components etc. At the end of this article I will give you a list of tools need, supplies required a5}bnd replacement components needed and where to get them from. FILTER CAPACITORS GET OLDi The filter capacit5}ors in the power supply as they age they dry out and develop a high power factor. This results in them letting A.C5}i. pass through on top of the D.C. voltage. This voltage is usually called the ripple voltage.o Since this is 5}a major overhaul of your 1050 disk drive we are going to replace them with premium filter capacitors which are lar5}ger than the original, !high% efficient, high temperature, long life types. We are also going to replace the5} 1N4001 1 Amp. Charge Pump Diodes with 3 Amp. heavy duty 1N5400 Silicon Rectifier Diodes. This will beef up the p5}gower supply so it is a new heavy duty long lasting supply. THE JOB STEP BY STEP I. DISASSEMBLYm 1a) Turn your dr5}ive on its back and with Phillips screw driver remove the 2 screws in the black front bezel. Then remove the 4 scre5 }Lws in the corners. Slide the top forward and out. Place it aside.R 1b) Next we must disconnect all the jac5 }ks from the PCB so we can remove the mechanical motor assembly. The motor assembly rests on 4 pins with rubber 5 } cushions. Lift up the front to see it. In the front on the right side of the PCB is a jack. Mark it and the PCB wit5 }h White Out so you know how to insert it again. Remove the jack. Do NOT pull on the wires but use the body of the 5 }jack to pull up on. 1c) In the back where the power supply is there is a large jack on the left and a smaller one5} on the right. They have to be removed. The left hand jack is really 5 jacks next to each other and they will 5} come out individually. If you look next to the jacks on the PCB you will see the jack markings. On Tandon drives the b5}Fody of the jack is also marked. On World Storage drives theJ OjacksS are corrugated and they are not marked5}G. The easiest way to mark where the jack belongs is to take a piece of masking take and write the jack number on it an5}d glue it around the appropriate wires. Here are the left handed jacks, front to back and the number of wires they ha5}ve. J11 has 4 wires! 1J12 has 2 wires7 VJ1 has 4 wires(motor control)\ lJ10 has 4 wiresr J14 has 3 w5}ires On the right hand side there is a single jack J15. Mark it and the PCB with White Out so you know how to5}' insert in later on. Remove it also.- 1d) On World Storage drives there is one more wire, a ground wire, usual5}ly purple that is glued with apoxy to the heat sink. The easiest way to remove it is to cut it and later on t5}3o solder it again when you assemble the drive.9 1e) You now can lift the motor assembly and remove it. Put is 5}Saside for now. You now have only the PCB and the bottom cover. II PCB REMOVALY You should wear a wrist grounding s5}Wtrap(see Tools) or have a grounded surface that you work on for the next steps.] 2a) If you remove the 4 rubbe5}r cushions on the motor pins it will be easier to remove the PCB. On Tandon drives about 2 inches from the front on5} either side of the PCB there are plastic snap holders that you must push back to remove the PCB. On World Storage5} drives you also have an additional two snaps in the back of the PCB. You also have 2 hold down screws on th5}e PCB in the back and on on the left front of the PCB in some drives. You must remove them. The PCB will now come 5}rout quite easily. Put the bottom aside you will work only with the PCB. III UPGRADING OF THE POWER SUPPLYx 3a) A5}s you look on the PCB in the back on the left side of the metal heat shield are two IC's mounted with screws and one 5 }on the right hand side. The rear left and right IC's are the voltage regulators. The left is a 7812 for 12 volts D.C.(Q5!}8). The right is a 7805 for 5 volts D.C.(Q7). Both of these regulators should have a white paste or heat sink 5"} compound(see supplies) on their backs. If they seem to have very little compound on them remove the nut, bent the IC a5#}G little forward. Clean both surfaces with 91% Isopropyl alcohol. Put new heat sink paste on them and reapply the n5$}$ut. This helps dissipate the heat from the IC. The front left IC usually has some kind of insulation material square 5%}Fclamped to its back. This is the TIP110 (Q6). Leave it alone.L 2b) Next you are going to ground the metal case5&} that covers most of the IC's. Cut a 5 in. piece of hook up wire. Strip the insulation from both sides. Find another5'} nut that fits over the right side of the screw that sticks out from Q7 on the metal shield. Put the wire ar5(}ound the screw and put the second nut on top of it. The other end of the wire solder to the side of the metal ca5)}*ge. This prevents RFI from your drive.0 3c) Next we desolder the 3 big black filter capacitors C67, C68 and C75*}1. On Tandon drives they have only 2 leades + and -. On World Storage drives they have 3 leads +,- and a dummy l5+}ead. You must desolder all of the leads to remove the capacitors. I used the SOLDAPULT desoldering tool from Radio 5,};Shack(see tools) and found it quite effective. After? the capacitors are removed clean out the holes. To clean t5-}he holes put a little solder over it and suck it out again with the SOLDAPULT tool. The old capacitors were 4700 u5.}f at 35 volts or less. The new ones we will install are going to be larger 6800 uf 35 volt, 105 degree C temperature,5/}% long life, high efficiency types.+ 3d) Remove the charge pump diodes CR15, CR16. They are in the middle between50} capacitor C71 and C68. They are clearly marked on the PCB. We are NOT going to desolder then instead we are going 51}to clip then near the body of the diode so we have two leads sticking up for each diode. The new diodes will get52} attached to these leads. The 3 Amp. diodes have thicker leads and would not fit into the holes on the PCB. Besides th53}Cis is the easier way of doing it. IV INSTALLATION OF NEW PARTSI 4a) The first thing we are going to do is install 54}the new 3 Amp. charge pump diodes 1N5400 in place of the CR15, CR16 1 Amp. diodes. Cut the lead of each new diode ab55}Gout 1/2 in. from its body and bend it 90 degrees. Take a solder splicer and fit it over each leg of the diode. Slip the 56}6 other end of the solder splicer over the old leads of the diode sticking out of the PCB. The band of the diodes57}m faces right. Solder the connections. Do this for both diodes. They both face to the right with the band.s 4b) Next 58}take your new filter capacitors, they are not wire lead types but have snap legs and see if you have to adjust t59}he legs. They will not fit flush on the PCB but are about 1/8 in above it. Adjust the legs so they fit into the holes 5:}of C67, C68 and C71 and solder them. The negative band faces to the right on all 3 filter capacitors. V CLEANIN5;}G To clean the jacks contacts and I/O contacts use CREMOLIN R100 and B100(See CN Oct. 90 page 24 "THE MAGIC JU5<}QICE") or if you do not have it use 91% alcohol(see supplies) VI REASSEMBLYW 6a) Put the PCB in the bottom cov5=}er and snap in the plastic retainers on the side of the PCB(4 on World Storage drives). If you had hold down s5>}'crews for the PCB reattach them.- 6b) Put the rubber cushion back on the 4 motor resting pins with the flat 5?}side up Before putting the motor assembly back look at the belt on the bottom. Clean it with soap and water if 5@}hit seems greasy. Clean the motor pulley and the flywheel with alcohol and reattach the belt.n 6c) Take the mo5A}Ttor assembly and put it on the 4 pins so they match the wholes in the housing.Z 6d) Twist the wires around a few 5B}Ktimes and attach jack J15 on the right rear side. Twisting prevents RFI.Q 6e) Attach the jack J6 on the front rig5C} ht side. 6f) Attach jacks J11, J12, J1, J 10 and J14 to their pins on the left hand side. Twist J1 a few t5D}iimes around. This prevents RFI. J1 is the motor jack. It is sticking out a bit on Tandon drives.o 6g) If you cu5E}Lt the purple ground wire re-solder it and put insulation tape over it.R You are now finished with the major pa5F}rt of the reassembly of your drive. Plug the power transformer in to the drive, turn it on and see if everything i5G}CUs O.K. and the read/write head goes into the park position. VII SPEED ADJUSTMENT[ Use DOS 2.6f(black DOS) or any5H}H other disk drive speed checking program to see if the speed is correct. The 1050 is very stable in this5I} regard and usually does not need to be adjusted. The correct speed is 288 RPM for an unmodified drive. The range ca5J}.n be from 280 to 296 without an adjustment.4 If you have to adjust the speed look for the potentiometer VR2. It is5K}Ǜ just to the right of jack J11. It is a small rectangular block with a tiny screw on top. Use a jewelers type of scr5L}Qew driver to adjust the speed to the right RPM. VIII VOLTAGE MEASUREMENTSW Take the black TIE POINT EXTENDER LEA5M}D that you made previously and slip it over TP15. TP15 is the ground. It is located in front of C68 and slightly5N} to the left of it. It is clearly marked on the PCB. to the right of TP15 is TP13. Take the other extension and5O} slip it over TP13. To the left of TP15 is TP14. Slip another extension over this tie point also. You now have 3 w5P}Fires sticking out of your disk drive, 1 black and 2 others.L Take your Digital Volt Meter(DVM) or VOM and at5Q}tach the ground probe to the black extension and attach the positive probe to the extension of TP13. Set the range5R} switch to 10 volts D.C. Turn on the drive. It should read 4.9 - 5.1 v. D.C. Now attach the positive probe to the5S} extension of TP14. It should read 12.01 - 12.03 v. D.C. These are not the most important voltages that you will meas5T}pure. The most important voltage is the A.C. ripple voltage that is riding on top of the D.C. voltage.v To mea5U}sure the A.C. ripple voltage get about a .1uf 100v or higher mylar capacitor and with clip leads attach th5V}e capacitor to the extension of TP13 and the other end of the capacitor to your positive probe. Set your meter to i5W}ts lowest A.C. range. The capacitor will block the D.C. and will let only the A.C. voltage pass. You should ge5X}t a reading of .001v. A.C. or less. That is what I got. Do the same thing with TP14. That is 1 millivolt of A.C. RMS 5Y}Gripple which is excellent. I think it is even less than what I measured because my probe leads are not shielded. Thi5Z}ZIs voltage may be partly stray A.C. being picked up by the probe leads.O If you use an analog meter you do the same 5[}\thing. On the A.C. ripple measurement the needle should not move or barely move at all.b The A.C. ripple is the q5\}uality measurement of your power supply. It should NOT have more than .002 v. A.C. RMS ripple riding on top of your D.C5]} . voltage. The command signal to STOP READ on the Floppy Disk Controller Chip WD2793 on pin 27 is only5^} -30 millivolts. If your power supply had an A.C. ripple voltage of only 11 millivolts RMS which translates int5_}o 30 millivolts Peak-to-Peak ripple A.C. it would be the same amplitude as the command signal and could easily co5`}nfuse the chip. There are even smaller voltages in your disk drive. You can see why the power supply has to deli5a}Gver clean D.C. voltages to your IC's. IX LUBRICATING THE MECHANISMM 9a) Use LUBE GEL(see supplies) and with a s5b}wab stick(see supplies) that is broken in the middle. Aplly a small amount on the rails of the read- write head. Smoo5c}th it out with the cotton swab. DO NOT use Q Tips or oil in your drive. Q Tips are glued to the stick and when dunked i5d}Mnto alcohol the glue then will spread over every surface you touch.S 9b) Put Lube Gel on all the moving 5e}n surfaces that eject the disk and are rubbing such as the tang that lowers the spindle to the disk etc.t 9c) Take 5f}Othe cotton swab and with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol clean the read- write head.U 9d) Rotate the pressure pad about 30 de5g}grees with a screw driver to expose a new felt surface. The pressure pad is right over the read- write head5q}B%DOS SYSB*)DUP ySYSBSWELCOME SCRB[WELCOME BASB>aNEWSLTR BASBMAINMENUHLPBAUTORUN SYSBHELP} DOCBPRESSPRTMNUBPRESSPRTHLPB FEMAIL TXTB CENVPRNTTXTBBJOYSTCKTXTBHDRV1050TXTBLFIRERESCUE B+BULKFORMSD GBIBULKFRMTXTBDGOODBYETXTB;6LISTER BASBqGCUSTOM TXTBDvENVPRNT BASBNHELLO TXTEPRESMSGTXT JATKINS TXTq and holds the disk to the head. 1/16 in. of felt should be showing below the plastic.

Try it out and see i5u} f it works O.K. X COSMETICS& On the back of your disk drive on top of the I/O connectors there is raised lette5v}ring. Mask the top and bottom with Scotch Tape and take a permanent type black felt tip marker and gently swip5w}ne over the lettering. Remove the Sotch Tape and the lettering will now be standing out in black.t Mask the5x} lettering on the front black bezel with Scotch Tape "OFF POWER ON". Also put tape in front and the back of the 5y} word "POWER". Take some White Out and put a little on a piece of plastic and with a smooth sponge pick up the we5z}t White Out. Gently swipe it across the lettering. If you mess up you can remove it with alcohol. You now have the5{}D raised lettering in white on the front of your disk drive.J Your disk drive is now in tip top shape. It is pro5|}bably better than when it was new. It will work quietly and reliably for you for a very long time. In addition you ha5}}Gve improved its appearance.

You write a program and whenyou are ready to save it you realizethat you don't have any diB}sk spaceavailable. You can't go to DOS toformat a new disk because you willlose the program in the memory. TheB}BSUPER BULK FORMATTER will solve thisand some other problems.G SREQUIREMENT:W [Thisa programREQUIRES SUPERDOS anB}d 2 disk drives.SUPERDOS returns an error code when aformatting error is encountered. DOS2.5 dos not send an erroB}r code butkeeps trying to format forever. ALLthe format XIO commands are forSUPERDOS and they will NOT work wiB} thDOS 2.5. FEATURES: This program willformat from 2 to an unlimited amountof disk at one session.You can speB }cifyhow many attempts at formatting(1-5)You can format a side or sidesin SINGLE DENSITY, 1050 DENSITY orDOUB }BLE DENSITY. Your disk drives mustbe capable of formatting in thesedensities. If you try to format inDOUBLE DENB }SITY on an unmodified 810disk drive your computer most likelywill lock up because an 810 drivecannot do DOUBLE B } DENSITY. You canformat 1 side or 2 sides. You canwrite DOS.SYS to the sides as they arebeing formatted. If you eB }ncounter aBAD SIDE the program will stop and letyou label the side. To continue pressSTART and the program will go to B}Ctheother disk. OPERATIONS: While one disk isbeing formatted you are asked toINSERT or REVERSE the disk B}] in theother drive. You have plenty of timeto do this (about 50 seconds perside.)b LIMITATIONS: The MINIMUM B}amountof disks you can format are 2. Thereis no MAXIMUM amount. If you format anodd number of disk on 2 sides the LASTSB}IDE will be in the wrong drive andwill not be formatted. You canovercome this by specifying an evennumber oB}&f disks and format one sidetwice.+ WUSING THE PROGRAM: To run thisprogram:\ r1)Remove the N/L diskw 2)InseB}rt a SUPER DOS disk in Dr#1! /3)Go to BASIC4 J4)Insert the N/L diskO j5)Type RUN "D:BULKFORM.SDo TO MAKE A MASTB} ER DISK: 11)Format a disk in SD and write6 GSUPER DOS to it.L n2)Copy from the N/L the files BULKFORM.SB}D to your newly &formatted disk.+ This program is in the PUBLICDOMAIN.

USAs>vEND}vEND}<@  GOOD-BY from the OL' HACKERS All good things must come to an end. We have been an 8 - bit Atari Club since DecF}ember 1985. That is 14 years. Our membership has been slowly declining over the years. New 8 - bit programs are very rF}are now. Most of our membership has switched to the P.C. platform. It is with a heavy heart that we decided tF}o disolve the OL' HACKERS ATARI USERS GROUP. It is like an old friend passed away. I myself will keep the 8 - bit sF}etup in one area. I also will switch over to the P.C. The closing date of OHAUG is Dec. 2000. Most members and I haveF}_ made many friends through the years. We had a lot of fun. I learned how to program andc ibecamem generally compF}uter literate. Our librarian HAROLD PEGLER recently passed away. Harold reviewd every program in the library andF} wrote a short synopsis for each on the 4 Library Disk. This was a monumental job. We have over 700 double sidedF }G Library Disks. He mailed out copies of the library to any member that requested any. He was the member to see iF!}!f you needed an upgrade on your computer or if you had a problem with a disk drive. His knowledge on Atari computers wasF"} extensive. With the death of Harold it is like a Library on Atari closed forever. He will be greatly missed. I wiF#}ll keep the Library open for the forseeable future. If you have any request from the library please write to me. TheF$} price of the library disks will remain the same. $3.00 for a single copy or $8.00 for 5 disks. This includes tF%})he shipping.

The OL' HACKERS' ATARI:Z} U.G. is dissolving as an Atari club 8-bit club but may try, in the future, to establish itself as an Atari PC clZ}ub. I am deeply indebted to each and every local member for his and her undying support and dedication to our iZ} nnumerable tasks! cand responsibilities in keeping us going for so many years. i Who could forget ourZ} founder and first president, the late Alex Pignato, who started the club fifteen years ago? He never missed a meetZ}cing. He was known throughout the Atari world as the force behind our organization.i Another unforgettablZ}e member was our late librarian, Harold Pegler, who passed away on February 28, 2000. He was a member for a decade. Z} He catalogued over 700 disks for our library. Harold was a great asset in the repair of our computers and inZ}rcreased computer memory for our members by adding computer chips. He was always willing to help everyone.x Alan Z} Sharkis, is unforgettable! He was the editor of our informative newsletter. Every month he wrote articles about oZ}ther Atari clubs reviewing the newsletter and magazine articles that were pertinent to us. He, too, demoed many Z}informative programs. Many people sent letters with problems. He and Ron Fetzer helped every one of them. Alan waZ} s a member since March, 1989.' Roland Fetzer, a ten-year member, has been invaluable. He was our treasurer Z}G and answered problem correspondence on Atari matters. He gave magnificent demonstrations in the power of the AtariZ}. In so doing, he always made a folder for each local member containing detailed notes on how to work the progrZ}am and its disk. nBarbara Keller, our newest member who joined us this year, has been invaluable.t wShe| hZ}as Vbeen transcribing the minutes of our meetings: an overwhelming task!\ John Hardy is very important toZ} the Atari organizations around the world. He holds a computer show every year in Las Vegas. He is also a collZ}Nector of Atari equipment which never was made available to the public.R John has an extensive collection of mZ}C4ost Atari programs-- still in the sealed boxes.: Harry Tuthill, a 14-year member, was the door-prize chairman. Z}Q He helped with refreshments. Harry always supported our activities. W Josef Leber, a 14-year member, was Z}the vice president. Allen Atkins, also a 14-year member, has been invaluable to us. He attended most meetingsZ}K and gave us invaluable advice. In fact, Allen was our first treasurer.R Melvin Levine, a three-year member, Z}was helpful in *all activities.0 As the last president of our organization, I HATE to see it come to aZ}n end. As I previously stated, I hope to see us reestablished as an Atari PC club. All suggestions are welcome. I Z}won't say good-by; just hope to hear from you and wish you the best that life has to offer. BYE FOR NOW, JACK GEDALZ}IUS say good-by; just hope to hear from you and wish you the best that life has to offer. BYE FOR NOW, JACK GEDALX #A Letter From Our Member Allen' Atkins My entry into the world of computers in 1983 was with the ATARI 800, 1010^} tape recoder and a 13 inch TV set. At that time my only source of information was Antic, Analog and Compute^}m magazines. One by one these magazines dedicated to the publishing of Atari articles were discontinued. } ^}C In 1985 the OL' HACKERS ATARI USERS GROUP was my savior. The club then became my only contac^}t with other Atarians. Through the club I found all my computer needs. You never wanted to miss any monthly me^}etings with local members like Alan Sharkis and Ron Fetzer demonstrating their computer knowledge, teaching and ^} programming.% &L Now the passing of the OL' HACKERS means th^}e end of fifteen pleasurable years. My Atari setup remains intact and I am still an active user. Maybe old habits die h^}ard. < =H UAllen Atkins{ ^}C>END%<'< =H UAllen Atkins{ \'CVW?z|EE
