I just picked up an Invasion-shooting game in an area 51 site 4 cab.
when I got it the screen was blank, then I got it home and noticed the tube has chatter and the neck had glow. so I measured the voltages and it was 2.86 on the +5.
wiggled and tapped it a bit, got it to 5.28 and the game came on and played.
During gameplay the game quit on me and I went and measured and it was back to 2.86 (0r so)
Is it as simple as the power supply is bad? Is it worth a rebuild attempt on the power supply?
