Title: WG436233 Specs?
Post by: chinabox on June 27, 2003, 09:22:56 pm
I opened up my Championship Bowling Machine (1989) and found a WG436233.  Does anyone know where I can get specs of this monitor?  I tried their website, but didn't find anything.  Any help?  Is it 15Hz?  Basically, I'm wondering if I can buy an ArcadeVGA for it...

Thanks,
Zach

I'd email andy at ultimarc to be sure...

Dollars to Donuts it is... because according to klov Championship bowling used a standard res 15khz monitor...  (although klov had it listed as horizontal...so how accurate is that?) =P

I checked here (http://www.mikesarcade.com/arcade/monitors.html) but he had every monitor but yours...

*Shrug*

Mostly likely you can... but check in with Andy if you have any doubts via email.

Yeah, it's definetly not horizontal.  However, it can easily switched to vertical--not that I'm saying it should be listed as "vertical" :)  Does anyone know what the specs of this monitor are?  I have a sinking feeling it's one of those 25Hz ones or something... ::)

In case I wasn't clear earlier...more than likely it's a 15khz ... but I'd email andy if you have questions about compatibillity with your monitor.

You can also drop Wells Gardner a line... they may give you the basic info you need... couldn't hurt.

BTW are you sure that's the model number?

Good luck,

Looking at the picture of the monitor from the other thread you have going on the main board I'd say thats a K7000 series chassis. 15KHZ check here and see if you can find a match...

The number you mentioned sounds more like the serial number. Can you provide a picture of the monitor circuit board? I strongly think you have a standard resolution (CGA) monitor.
