Post by: arcadefever on October 05, 2007, 02:16:47 PM

I have found few months ago, 2 black and white vector monitor. Both of them were imcomplete. One is missing almost everything, and the other one as just the deflection board...

I have found some spair parts on Ebay (sell as non working), just enought to a list rebuild one monitor  :wink:

I order a capkit from Bob Roberts, and started to rebuild the deflection board. I also work a bit on the high voltage cage...

here is the 2 monitors:
