Sold and parted-sold. We never used the Neo Geo and this is the POW monitor. POW cab was sold to someone for a MAME setup since it was just a generic Dynamo.
Turns out I have one of these on my shelf. Guess this is a decent time to figure out how to use it.

HOLY CRAP!
I just went through a couple of boxes of books I picked up from the woman who gave me much of my test equipment. It's all from her father's TV repair sideline that he had to give up when he got Alzheimers a few years ago. The bulk of it is from around 1985 backwards and I didn't know much about what I was looking at when I got them so I stashed them until I did.
I'm looking at two good sized boxes of TV schematics, TV analysis and repair guides, what appears to be a whole course of practical TV theory/repair texts (~10 books)... books specifically on TV troubleshooting with an oscilloscope from beginner to advanced techniques... specific manufacturer repair manuals for Zenith, GE, and a few others going back years. Component cross reference guides from 1976-1986. Operating manuals for all sorts of test equipment I didn't get from her that should probably get scanned and put on the net.
:o
I can get pics of everything for anyone who wants them and might be able to scan stuff with bindings that will allow it.

Sweet !
That sort of information is definitely getting hard to come by.

Stepping aside a bit, looking at the rest of these spare boards, they all have broken dip banks. Does anyone know of a suitable replacement? I asked at KLOV and came up dry.
ChadTower:
GRRRRR. Went to work on the monitor issue tonight and now it fails in 4th self test - the color board. Not patient enough to deal with a NEW problem. I'm going to watch a movie and eat some ice cream. :banghead:
