Re: G80 speech board

Hello,

  I was just going over Clay's message about speech boards. I have 2 Star
Trek sets...each, I believe, different in the socket where the 'Orator, is
located...

   On board labeled 800-3308 A, there is a chip in the 'Orator' socket
with the number 783-4043-002. The logo on the chip looks like this...

-----------
| |

| ---- |

next to this 'GI...and it is that rectangular, unlike the orator's "curvy"
GI... is the number 8048 CCA and TAIWAN.

On my other board, which has a handwritten 800-3308 REV D, the chip
clearly says SPO250 ORATOR.

and the logo is clearly a GI with the numbers 8136 CCA TAIWAN

I'd love to let you guys know if there is any difference in sounds, etc.,
but I am having one hell of a time getting my monitor to work, and there
is much static in the audio (my boards are working though). If I can wire
up some mock coin mechanisms, I'll let you know how sounds compare. My
monitor currently is displayin a bright dot in the center with some nice,
small, blue squigglies!! Anyway, if it would help to donate the
board/chip to a Sega Multigame cause, let me know...just return it when
finished!!! Oh, the number of EEPROMS are the same on Star Trek's
speech...3. And one more thing I just noticed...on the board I have
without the ORATOR, there is a national semiconductor 8039 (exact numbers
are 014C INS8039N-6 /P8039-6)...on the board with the ORATOR there is
an Intel P8035HL L2468201. Hope this helps!!! Thanks
