SubRoc 3-D On CL $50

Well picked up the Subroc today. The guys very nice. The sounds work as does all of the buttons and lights and score screens. The monitor does work but it has only a very thin viewable area maybe 3mm wide . You can clearly make out the color changes of the objects flying and such and explosions. Played around shortly with connections to make sure they where clean. I have not taken and voltage readings yet. I am guessing maybe a dud connection, power supply or monitor in need of some TLC. The motor mechanism in the view housing makes a racket...chances are that needs some help but that concerns me less then the monitor. Should be a good practice for me to repair.
 
Cool game, great 3D effect. Sold mine a while back to get one of my grails. I made a free-play rom of sorts (IM me, and I'll send it)...requires a jumper wire from START button to credit...press START to credit and go to "PRESS START" screen (START button will flash), press START a second time to clear credit and start game...a kludgy method, but allowed me to keep the attract mode, and not get stuck in an endless loop if it were the jumper wire alone...the "rom" adds the words "FREEPLAY" to attract mode, passes the power-on self-test, and credit/starts the game when START is pressed.
