Ok, so I have a few problems with my AD. I installed Bob's new kit on this Sunday. Bob's kit says the 10 ohm resistor is for R29... but I noticed my R26 seems to be the same part (correct me if I'm wrong) and since the original R26 looked toasty, and everything else looked good, I replaced that instead. Well if it was a little toasty before it's been through Hell now.
A few questions:
Did I install it backwards? Since the original was burnt, I couldn't easily tell... if you're looking at the image as it is now, from left to right I installed it Gold, black, black, brown.
I had a regular Asteroids in the past, and I had a black diode here. On the net I can see that several AR boards with the same part # A034485 also have a diode. Was this a later mod? Should this be the part I install?
Also since I rebuilt the thing, what caused this? Was this a problem before I got it or did I do something boneheaded?
