Taito to JAMMA adapter (I'm bored and wanted a thread to feel special)
Got my parts in from Bob today... wanted to start on a happy note before I dug into the BattleZone monitor (which I have a feeling is going to suck... not an easy fix this time).
So... decided to finally convert my Jungle Hunt cab that was converted to Elevator Action, then Jamma'd to Empire City, then used as a Konami 36 pin cabinet (by me this time)... BACK to Elevator Action. I had the EA board here for a while, figured I might as well do something with it... plus the adapter will let me finally work in my Alpine Ski board and see what's up with that heap.
So... yeah.
So far I've done just enough for audio and video... haven't done and coin or CP wires yet.
Yeah, I know there are places that sell them... but the cheapest I've seen is from Spaeth and, while I'm sure they're great, they're also $40. Some other places have them for double that! ... screw that, this one is about $12 in parts, if that.
The wave at the top of the monitor won't adjust out... no idea why, I don't worry about it too much. And convergence on the monitor sucks because the yoke windings have been mangled somehow... again, I don't worry about it too much.
Anywho... bored, and wanted a thread... I'll post more as I work on it more. Just a slow day here.
