Wow this feels good. The monitor was suffering shutdown, and all I had to do to get it working was to make a new clip that connects flyback to the tube (out of sheet metal, just like the original) and I used some needle-nose plyers to snap the epoxy on the B+ and Shutdown pots on the chassis. I marked the position before I turned the pots, and rotated them back after breaking them free. I think just turning them cleaned the contact and the monitor doesn't go into shudown anymore. Don't worry the pot is back in the original position, I won't be operating a X-Ray lab or anything.

I still need to put the cabinet back together, but it is great to have this working again. I love the music.

Not to interrupt your conversation....but GOOD JOB!!!

The music is pretty catchy, My Radikal Bikers was purchased with the intent to make something else, but once I had it working it is actually a pretty fun game.

  1. Finish this cabinet for my Xbox 360
  2. I need to cap the sound board on my MK1
  3. DONE Fix the shutdown on the monitor in my Radikal Bikers DONE
  4. Fix the communiations in the Baby Pac and install new rubber
  5. completely restore the Galaxian
  6. Figure out where I am going to put the Galaga '88
Keep on truckin'

Exactly! I bought the Radikal Bikers off of SRW to use the monitor in my Capcom vs SNK. The kids love Radikal Bikers, and I was able to buy a 27 VGA monitor for the Capcom Vs SNK, which looks phenomenal with a naomi!

I was just about to edit my list and add recap my Donkey Kong Cabaret monitor :eek: The projects never stop! :D
 
sooo about that mortal kombat sound board.... it'll only take you 30 minutes tops

tell your wife just a second your almost done with a solder joint lol :D
 
after fixing my nba jam soundboard and replacing both of my cps2 batteries i feel like i could do a cap kit in my sleep.
 
I know it works but it's been on your todo list for to long being something that would be such a quick easy fix :D

how's the wife today? we doing this? (lol)

I can't bring myself to fix that until I have finished the other projects first. You (and parents) just don't understand! :cool:

The wifey is chillin, waiting for things to progress, I am back to work today.
 
hope today's the day for ya buddy.

Maybe your parents are onto something? mom and dad obviously want to hear "FATALITY" as loud as possible, why should you deny them this :D
