Is your HV up where it should be? (Just wondering if it was high/low
resulting in an incorrectly sized image that maybe you've just partially
corrected using the width controls or something?) The yoke is fully seated
on the neck? (Not to far forward or back?)

I don't think I do, but I'll just order the Rev4's. I haven't had any
available for years, so I'm sure some people will want some. They're tiny,
so they should ship overseas pretty cheap too.

I did! ...but not in a long while. (*Shakes fist angrily at consulting
business being busy*) I did get the "lost" voice samples added back in and
then I dropped back and did a bunch of tool work. Got a raster->vector
converter going with Atari AVG output so I can make menu and on-screen stuff
easier. I tried out my new sound board daughtercard, but that didn't work
first try so I set it aside to "deal with you later".

The PROM replacement board has over 3500 hours on it now in Ground Kontrol
with no problems, so that looks good. It gets rid of a surprising amount of
heat in the cage, which is nice.

I also did a little spelunking through some weird old metafiles and it looks
like I have a couple complete sets of test builds of the game prior to
release. I haven't tried pulling the data out of those to build ROMs yet,
but it has potential. I'm eyeballs deep in a couple overly complex things
(Freescale i.MX31 and a TI OMAP3530 hardware-- gotta like 3000+ page
reference manuals ;-), so progress is slow, but I'm picking away at it when
I find time.
