The right thing to do as a seller, is full disclosure. Explain that the CRT has been replaced by a LCD or the original PCB's were replaced with a modern equivalent.

I was never good at taking pic's. Sorry for the low res, not sure where the originals are at.

Yes, andrewb is correct. I didn't mean he died, just retired... I enjoyed the moon pies, made me smile :-)

The site is no longer up. I know about the archive... Just curious if he may passed. We lost "The Real Bob Roberts" and I know their were others. I'm almost 60, so some of us that were active 25-30 years ago are timing out. He programmed me some solid state replacements for BiPolar ROMs...

Just getting back into the hobby, where did www.biltronix.com go ?

Played some BattleZone today... I'm not the best pic taker :-(

I have reseated every chip and connector. Even used a loupe to look for any bad/cold solder joints (everything was reflowed back in the day) I have repaired many late 70's-80's arcade, pins and slots, so I am familiar with the normal things to do. PCB connectors look good and I did deoxit the...

The 5vdc tested @ 4.976 I tied the ground and 5vdc between the PCB's just to be sure of any loss in the edge connectors.

I dusted off my Battlezone this week in preparation for selling it. Back in 2009 I went through it, recapped all boards, Braze kit, new Bipolars, new bit slicers and the list went on. Fired it up this week and it ran for 3 hours in attract mode, no issues. I had to go to the store so I turned...

Looks awesome ! A job well done. In the 90's I bought a Cosmic Chasm from a local OP, the very one I played as a child in the arcade. The overlay was mostly peeled off. I looked for years and years for a CP and never found one. I finally sold my CC in 2008 for $3500 on ebay. I would say if...

A buddy brought over a MK1 in a conversion cab. It has a Wico / Kortek SUM-20C monitor. The monitor seems tired... It lacks sharpness, brightness and weak focus. I get a picture after ten seconds or so, and picture quality gets a bit better after five minutes. Has a slow HuLa... but no burn...

Back in the day I had a Space Duel and a Black Widow that needed an AVG replacement. My symptoms for both machines were the same. I recall fixing a few others for someone else. On power up, they would both just sit there and go click, click click. The sound was coming from the coin door...

Very cool videos ! I want to see more.

I was thinking $600 and go from there... For those that are close, I also have an Asteroids Cocktail $450, Star Wars w/Clay's ESB $900 and a Sega XY Multi Game $650.

I'm thinking about parting out my Pac Man Cabaret, unless someone would want to buy it whole. Location: Mason City Iowa. http://home.mchsi.com/~litterbox99/temp/f.jpg I would sell; CP Has new micro switch buttons & micro switch joy stick. http://home.mchsi.com/~litterbox99/temp/cp2.jpg...
