Gents,
Got a call that the monitor in a Pacman I have on location looked like it needed some help. Went out to it after work and it indeed does not look good. Recapped this monitor last year (June 26, 2016) with an Ian Kellogg kit (so I know I used good caps). Reflowed all the card connectors on the cards themselves and the chassis as well when I capped it. B+ is within spec. Was working just fine after the recap and was operating with no problem from July of last year up until yesterday apparently; been going 12 to 14 hours a day for a year, so I guess I can't complain too much. Some research tells me this might be a problem with the black level pot, but figured I'd have you guys take a look before I go chasing my tail. Looks like it could be more than that maybe? Tell me what you think:
