Hey guys

I wonder if someone knows of an update in the deflection board

All of my Deflection boards have 3.3K ohm resistors in R8, R13, R31 and R36

I have checked the Blue, beige and green boards

On the beige board I have a massive burn mark under R8, with a new 3.3 OHM resistor there (Meager attempt to fix)

Here's the dilemma, on every schematic it shows 3.3 OHMS, yet there are glimpses in the manual saying 3.3K (page 19) and 3.3 ohms (Schematic)

Should I go with 3.3K as per the boards?

Was there a memo or Atari release maybe?
 
It's 3.32 ohms

The resistors in the boards are 5 band resistors

3.32 ohms

I de-soldered four resistors from a green board. When tested they were all 3.3 ohms

So whoever reads this in the future, the 3.3K referred to in the picture of the Deflection board, is incorrect (The tech thought they were 4 band)

In a 4 Band, Orange orange red silver would be 3.3K, but that is wrong here, as we have 5 bands

:eek: :eek: :D
