Welllll, no, but before I closed the warehouse for the night, I observed
several things:
Low +5V, even at maximum adjustment.
Low X and Y drive voltage (?) I had to adjust the X and Y width adjusts
ALL THE WAY to get the picture to spread across the entire screen.
Somewhat fuzzy vectors overall.
The last one could certainly be attributed to bad connectors, bad
grounding, and/or bad filtration in the vector drive power, but since
the overall theme seems to be 'draggy power' I wonder if there's
something funny with the way the transformer's tapped. Anybody have any
insight into Bally power supplies to tell me if there's a 'high tap/low
tap' on these like there is in the pinball world?

Thanks! That gives me something to check tomorrow. Meanwhile, here's
