I am testing the board in a working Asteroids and only swapping the
deflection board. I am pretty sure it's the deflection board. Someone
mentioned the spotkiller led being bad and I don't think it's that since I
have both X and Y deflection. The board works it just won't display bright
enough. I'll see if I can find it on the Z circuit. What do you mean by the
connector problem?
