I have an Electrohome G07 monitor in a 1982 Centipede cocktail table game.
The unit had not been powered up for about 5 years. About two weeks ago, I powered it up, and to my surprise the game runs great, picture is nice and clear. Game action is perfect.
However, the picture is too "wide" for the screen. That is, the centipede runs off the edges of the screen. I've tried the adjustments on the back of the monitor. After reading up on this forum, I figured out I need to adjust the vertical controls to adjust the width.
The pod does adjust the width, but it only goes from "really too wide" to "just a little too wide".
I've been searching the archives here, and am wondering if the B+ adjustment could help? Any other ideas?
Like I said, the rest of the picture is great. Bright, colorful, clear.
Also, while I have soldered a few things in the past, I don't know much about electronics, so I'm not sure I would want to rebuild the monitor if it needs it. If it comes down to that, is there anybody who does swaps on these units?
Thanks for any help or advice anyone can provide.
