Well, I didn't manage to buy any games at the CAX this year, but I did have a couple deals lined up before the show. I had already bought a A.D. and made the deal for the Star Trek. I also picked up one of Wolfeel's rebuilt monitors for the A.D.
A.D. is a project. Got it home and started working on it right away. The monitor is missing the deflection board so I got the new monitor for it. All boards were unplugged, but present. I checked all of the fuses, checked voltages which were good. Plugged the game board and AR board in and it played blind. Plugged in the monitor and I now have working AD! I wish all nonworking games came back to life this easy!
Star Trek was and is working. I would like to restore the cabinet and put some side art on it. I'm not sure how to remove the groovy wood siding. Whoever put it on did a really good job, but I think it would look better black with Star Trek art. I'll be asking questions in the cabinet forum...
I know, pictures or it didn't happen, so here they are...
Regards,
Tom
