  1. My G05-802 is whistling at me, rather than displaying things.

    Thanks, I'll check those out! I'll also check my hearing out, because after recording the sound with my phone and moving between the yoke and the HV cage, it's clearly louder when the mic was over the yoke, so it must be vector chatter. Glad that's cleared up, at least.

  2. My G05-802 is whistling at me, rather than displaying things.

    Yes, that's the exact video I referenced actually. Thanks for making it! I had read about vector chatter but I was unclear as to what it was until I heard it. I'm near-certain it's coming from the HV cage though. I have a HV probe in the mail, so that's the next step. Maybe I'll stick my...

  3. My G05-802 is whistling at me, rather than displaying things.

    My G05-802 is whistling at me, rather than displaying things. Hello all, So I finally decided to try and see if my G05-802 asteroids vector monitor works. I hooked up a signal generator to the proper input pins, provided proper power from the standard asteroids power boat-anchor, and prayed I...

  4. WTB: Asteroids or Lunar Lander power brick

    Bump. Does anybody have one of these laying around?

  5. FS Last Call: Atari Asteroids upright KC area

    I'm interested in the power supply, if you're parting it out.

  6. WTB: Asteroids or Lunar Lander power brick

    I think the model number is A034561. I just need one that works with ZVG G05-802 cable. Can anybody help me out?

  7. WTB - WS6100 or other color vector monitor

    Haha, actually, been there done that. http://igm.rit.edu/node/664 http://cias.rit.edu/~nmtp/179773/socialaser/Final.pdf http://www.virtualmatter.org/vm_core/assets/2010/04/laser.jpg http://igm.rit.edu/sites/default/files/spfiles/socialaser_web_movie.mov While I wasn't on the actual team, I...

  8. good place to buy this transistor?

    Ok so I did a bit of research, and the BDX53A is a pretty obsolete part. However, Fairchild Semiconductor recommends the BDX53B as a replacement part, which seems to be in stock at Mouser, at least...

  9. Stupid Vector Monitor Questions

    Sorry, I see how the previous post could be confusing. Let me explain: My original plan was to get the firmware, redo the board, and then open source the board layout and see if Zonn wanted to sell diy kits, in order to keep the production still going but to significantly reduce the effort on...

  10. Stupid Vector Monitor Questions

    Yes, I was considering that, but it just feels slightly unethical to me. I'll probably end up doing that if Zonn won't sell/give me the firmware, only I'll make just one for my own personal use. I'm not even sure I'd be comfortable releasing the board layout without Zonn's permission. Although I...

  11. Stupid Vector Monitor Questions

    Welp, I sent Zonn an email, so we'll see where this goes!

  12. Stupid Vector Monitor Questions

    Well, the thing is this: since it originally cost $250, I'd probably have to buy it off someone for like $275, given what I've seen them go for here. Furthermore, the thing uses a parallel port, and I don't have a PC at all, just a macbook. So even if I could get one, it's pretty much useless...

  13. FS Game: Asteroids For Sale In San Diego

    Let me know if you ever decide to part it out, I'm interested in the monitor

  14. Stupid Vector Monitor Questions

    Do you guys think the Zektor guy would sell me just the firmware for the two microcontrollers on the board? The schematic is already on the site, I could just do my own board layout as a one-off. I fear that I will have lost interest in all of this by the time a ZVG came up for sale :P

  15. FS Game: Asteroids Cocktail X 2

    Any interest in parting these out? I'm interested in the monitor from the working one, if you're up for shipping it to NY.
