My sprint 1 has some issues with it that I am trying to resolve.
Issue 1 - occasionally the picture will get larger for a few seconds, sometimes it's large-small-large-small then it looks fine.
Issue 2 - when it's doing the above, the picture will sometimes look very fuzzy like it's totally out of focus.
Issue 3 - On the right side where you can see the edge of the picture it looks wavy and unstable. The line that defines the right side moves and looks unstable.
This is what I have done so far and none of these helped the issue..
1 - standard cap kit
2 - replace can capacitor
3 - replace regulator and horizontal and vertical output transistors.
4 - adjusted it. B+ is dead on at 73
It doesn't seem to be the gameboard itself, when I plug in my test 19" motorola the picture is perfect as far as I can tell and doesn't have the above symptoms.
For the hell of it I replaced the regulator and the large filter caps on the game pcb with no change.
I love this game and would really like to get it working perfect. Any ideas??????
Thanks, Barry
