WTB: Fully working TEMPEST PCB

Yeah that Tempest belongs to my best friend. Its really nice, it came from a garage find and hadn't been played in probably 15 years. Did a full Bob Roberts rebuild kit on the monitor myself and resoldered all the pins. The board has had all the adjustment potentiometers replaced with the BR kit. The power supply was completely rebuilt so this Tempest purrs like a new one. I gave it a good testing. ;)

He also has a really nice Sinistar. Its better than the one I have and he's only asking $600 for it. It had the power supply and board fixed. The 3 AAs have been removed and a BR coin cell battery kit has been installed. I gave it a good testing too. Beat his score. :)

You should see the defender he's working on right now. He wanted me to check out the boards and resolder the pins. But the boards looked like they were brand new. I really hated to even mess with the factory solder and clip marks where they cut off the back of the header pins. Its about half way done. And yes its nicer than the one I have. Its making me kind of sick to let these go. I wish I had the money to trade him out of them, but I don't.

The one that really hurt was the Robotron he had. It looked like it was new. I really wish I could have kept that one.
