Chad from Arcadecup posted a nice Hi Res manual he recently found.
You get good clear pics of the boards
So it's possible to make them if you guys are interested
Could these be used in a G08 Game with an adapter? The voltages are close
The HV board looks pretty straight forward, as do the other 3 boards
The HV cage is almost the same, just an extra 1/2" hole
Differences on the whole monitor include:
In conclusion
If this monitor could be built, it's a closer match to the G08 monitors voltages
There may be a chance to use these to replace the G08 since the Custom ICs are unobtainable etc
Or they could be used in the cabs they were designed for as well
I would suggest some kind of modified LV circuit as the outputs from the Power Transistors are around +/-47V DC as opposed to WG6100's +/-27V DC
It would be nice to have a constructive conversation about this please
Let me know what you think

Differences on the whole monitor include:
- There is no 8 pin connector at the bottom of the HV, just 4 wires leaving from a hole in the HV case
- There is no over-volt protection on the HV
- The Deflection transistors are doubled up
- The voltage supply is higher
- The HV uses no -24V rail or even -40V. It uses GND there
- The Defl. has the original Low Voltage section (Like in a WG6100 Deflection) and uses 46V zeners instead of the 28V
- The interface board handles the incoming X&Y signals
- So there is only a 12 Pin Monitor connector instead of a 15 Pin as a result
- The interface board creates its own +13/-13V for the Op Amps to run
- The CRT is not a CR24, it's a CR23
- The neck board has brightness adj, like the late model WG6100s do
- The yoke is different to a WG6100 and Amplifones, even G08s
- The HV has a 150V zener instead of a 100V
- The flyback looks the same (EDIT: Confirmed, is the same)
