Introduction
« on: May 11, 2012, 07:37:37 pm »
Hello Everyone, my name is Tim. I have been an electronics tech for almost 40 years now, spent most of my time in the consumer side of things and worked on everything TV's, VCR's, Camcorders, Stereo's etc. the last 12 years I have been the Monitor/board guy for an Arcade Distributor in Denver (Game Exchange of Colorado).

Spent this afternoon fixing a Space Invader chassis, this morning I had a WG7000 that some one had put a .27 uf cap where the .39 goes LOL it was taking out the HOT every 2 hours. I work on these chassis every day and I landed here because of an Ultracade search I did. LOL learned the hard way why Global stopped givin out the install codes for em (and we are a GlobalVR distributor) figured I would check in every so often and see if I can help answer questions.

I look forward to hangin out and gettin to know all of you

welcome, you will find a brand of humor that...let's say, takes some getting used to.

Hi Tim

Nice to have you here and I truly believe you could contribute a lot to this community with that kind of experience.

Building, collecting and playing arcade machines :)
