New guide: full combined install of @borti4938 SNES Multi-Region AIO and @TzorriMahm SNES RGB bypass on a SNES Jr. When installing both together, the process differs from installing them separately. Hopefully this helps make things clearer for installers.

Some more additions. A nice surprise at the end. Soon to be letting go of one of the best monitors in the personal collection.

We've upgraded our VGA to x5 BNC cable which pairs well with MiSteR and various other VGA devices to now use our new custom 75-ohm coax cable! Our upcoming Dreamcast VGA cable, which will also feature this new cable, has also recently been finalized! Both will be available soon.

After some slight geometry tweaks, etc., the set is looking spectacular! Twitter compression, but these BVMs are seriously impressive in person. This unit will be on the website soon after final calibration, along with some PVM-20M4Es repaired over the years to follow.

Not to forget the cheap general-purpose capacitor mounted on the bottom side of the 'D' sub-board. The exact high ripple current, low impedance capacitor that Sony repair technicians used is still available today, so we used the same part here. Mfg. part no.: 6.3ZL1000MEFC10X12.5

Deflection 'D' and 'E' boards: both of the above. Capacitors were previously replaced with the ChongX types, and many of the surface mount caps needed replacing on both boards.
