I have a Hantarex Polo 2/A 28 Monitor and I'm having a hard time finding a definitive answer as to which flyback this uses, and where I might be able to order one.

I bought a "working condition unknown" Gauntlet: Dark Legacy (originally Legends) and when powered up the screen showed a distorted image and the flyback made snapping noises and a piece of the transformer assembly was blown out. Game plays blind. I ordered the (the non definitive) Polo flyback from Bob Roberts, had a TV repair tech that's been in the business 30+ years install it and look over everything else - he says it looks and tests fine voltage wise (he has nothing to hook it up to, and I question how much he knows about arcade monitors) - and now I get a very faint glow on the neck, and no glow or image on the monitor. Thought I'd start at verifying the proper flyback is installed. Anyone?
 
I think they're different, cause the Polo 2 was a medium or high res monitor. considering Chad at Arcadecup.com doesn't work on them or even have replacement flybacks, it's not looking good. :(
 
Thanks for your reply. Yeah, not having any luck tracking down a flyback for this. Pretty disappointing as the game plays blind and 28" monitors aren't exactly as readily available as 19"s.
