ChadTower:
Don't have any pics yet but will soon.  This is The Shadow, Williams, 1994.

So far, a little poking through it shows it to be in excellent shape, mostly working, needs a good shop job to be up to strong standard.

The DMD is out.  The DMD driver has some toasty looking diodes on it and both fuses are bad.  So I'm looking up the fuses in the manual to be sure they are the right ones.  I have a DMD rebuild kit on hand and will try that this weekend.


ChadTower:

The fuses are 3/8A which seems to be a total PITA to find.  I have tons of spares of various sizes but not 3/8A.  Radio Shack doesn't list them.  Grr.

ChadTower:
Man was clearing all those components from the HV circuit a pain in the ass.  So much oxidized solder that wouldn't come out... even after being renewed multiple times.  I did get through it lifting only one pad and one trace, though.  Considering how badly burned this surface is that's pretty good.  Still have to get it all back together but I need some wrap wire for jumping the lifted trace and some heat sink compound to put the heavy hitter transistors back onto their heat sinks.

Timoe:
Chad,

Get a digital camera.

 :soapbox:

ChadTower:

I have one.  What I don't have is a ton of time right now... I'll see what I can do.  Been taking pics all along.
