    Noob Question - Defender controller panel

    The original control panel overlay is plastic on top of wood. https://www.arcadeartshop.com/product/defender-perspex-plexi-control-panel-overlay-cpo/ This seller also has a version with extra button for Inviso for Stargate if running a JROK board that permits running that game also.

    Strange Dynamo HS-5 Panel

    Is there a best chassis for 19 inch CRTs?

    I kind of don't mind the bloom on k7000, but some Nanao seem to really handle/eliminate bloom well. Monitors that REALLY don't handle bloom well are some of the replacement universal chassis. Other comments just for fun: Ones needing an ISO transformer K4900 - all but one have worked...

    Panic Park - Namco System 23 repair

    A Panic Park game has a video issue that is not a monitor issue. When turned on, the game will appear to be playing blind but have some rolling interference lines on the screen. Over the course of about 5min the image will fade in and become progressively brighter but still seem to have heavier...
