Re: Tempest repair problems

Hi Kev,
With game in test mode X out has 3.7volts ac, Y out zero volts ac. Don't have a scope nor access to one.
Thanks,
Rich

BTW, OT did you see the tongue-in-cheek article from "The Onion" on Cowboys releasing Jerry Jones?

  What are the AC voltages running on the X and Y output. Do you have a scope to put on the outputs?

  If you do, have a look at my page showing your wave forms with the diamond pattern in test.

    Hello and Happy New Year,

    Looking for any suggestions on a fix for a spare Tempest boardset. I got this and several other PCB’s for free from a local Op who was cleaning house, when I plugged it in my game there was no Y output, found that C13 was bad, replaced that and now I have voltage swings on both X&Y outputs. Someone replaced all the TLS082 chips and I verified that they are good. So here is where I'm at, 6100 fully functional, all voltages on PCB correct, goes into self test, no tones heard except the 4 decending tones, game plays blind as far as I can tell. Spot killer "on" and when I turned up brightness momentarily to override it, the screen just showed a small red dot in the center.

    Thanks in advance for any help.
