Yeah, she said someone else had contacted her.  Must have been you... though it WAS up here nearly a week before I asked Peale for the info.

crashwg:

You only contacted Peale the day after I did, so it's not like I waited that long, just a little too long I guess.

Oh well, enjoy!

My time will come, and when it does I'm jumping on it!

ChadTower:

Yeah, heh... sorry about that.  :)

I just got it into my basement, plugged it in... powered right up!  No game, though, just the screen and lights.  Definitely looks like everything is there so I'm guessing it's a dead fuse, maybe crappy contacts.  They said it hasn't been powered up in 20 years, so you could imagine all the stuff that needs some refreshing.

All my black and white cabinets power up too. First off, replace every electrolytic cap in the thing, especially the bigger ones. A lot of those 70s games had some big caps in them, and those caps are a minimum of 30 years old now and could possibly be up to 35 years old (depends on how much shelf time the caps saw before they were used).
