Can anyone point me to a basic walkthrough to eliminating the AR II on a Missile Command and installing a switcher and a separate audio amp?
Just picked up a dead one with a disintegrated power switch. After I bypassed that I found it had .46 volts. I was about 2 components in to the AR II repair kit when I remembered that "Gee, you have multiple working AR II boards here already".
So, I tossed in a working one, powered it up, got a red light on the main PCB and the AR II immediately started trying to burn up a resistor. So I shut it down before it could finish that job and started thinking about switching power supplies, because I am sick and tired of dealing with AR IIs.
