# Better Sound

To increase the volume of SOUND on the 2068, try this little circuit. Circuit placement is not critical, but try to keep the signal lead as short as possible. In place of the #4B connection, you can use a 9 volt battery. The ‘A’ side of the the connector is toward the top of the machine, and the slot is designated as pin #6.
