    Who would you like to see come back to KLOV/Hobby?

    Ken Layton (RIP) was an unbelievable asset to be able to reach out too. He would readily respond and give detailed answers to some troubleshooting efforts I was working on. Still use his name in the search engine when looking for info.

    Token Vender on Credit Cards - American Changer AC2006 or ??? - Also Nayax?

    Many of the change machines can also dispense 0.984" and 0.955" tokens in place of quarters. Some may also have the ability to calibrate/tune the machine to a specific token size that isn't as close to a quarter as the sizes mentioned. I've had to pick up a few change machines over the last...

    Breaking Into The Locked Backdoor Of A Midway Ms. Pac-Man UR

    Most operators I know use barrel locks keyed specifically for them. The cheap locks many buy are easy enough to pick. Originals were better made.

    Breaking Into The Locked Backdoor Of A Midway Ms. Pac-Man UR

    Thats because they didn't use a lock plate or 4 point retaining washer on the back side. I've had to swap in these plates on games recently that were being opened up while out on location. Once installed its not so easy.

    Operator question: Commercial Classic Arcade Location - How often do videogames break down?

    Highlights off the top of my head of work done in the last year to location games. Lethal Enforcers - Rock solid after installing new Happ Guns. TMNT - K7000 monitor developed slight curl and other geometry issues that were fixed through adjusting. Buttons becoming loose. Sound pot needing...

    Tools you don’t necessarily NEED for arcade repair, but are really great to use for it

    That 1792 will put a hurting on the wallet but damn its good. Would almost be a sin to mix it with anything.

    Tools you don’t necessarily NEED for arcade repair, but are really great to use for it

    I'd have to go with magnetic nut drivers. Specifically 1/4". I have been doing alot of pinball repair lately (playfield swaps) and these have been made much easier with magnetic nut drivers.

    I was just introduced to Buffalo Trace recently. Pretty good flavor, pretty smooth and not to hard on the wallet. I raise you the following:

    I've got two for location play (Safari and Open Season) and could easily find locations for the two more.

    Atari was the pioneer in video boob technology.

    The excitement of finding a game with credits on it quickly faded...

    These machines kill on location. I have more people ask if I have BBH then any other machine.
