Maybe a 4 player pong ? and these are the paddle adjustment pots ?

No idea, just a guess  ::)

the paddle-battle pcb looks quite the same...except the pots...
maybe this leads to an solution...chips are dated from 1973....

All those 'ancient' Atari-PCBs I know have pots for adjusting the volume of the different sound effects. i.E. Sprint2 has 4 pots, 2 for pitch and volume of the black car and two for the white one.....I'd rather research in this direction....

I've never had an argument with him :)

I have no problem to handle 'difficult folks' with care when I know they're not complete @ssh0les after all  ;)

Yeah guys, I really feel bad about that......it was never my intention to drive that discussion that far.....but......it is also never my intention to be put in the wrong spotlight by anyone...and I do have the right to defend myself.

I regretted his leaving here as much as you do....people can have discussions or maybe even an argument, but handle it like grown man and after a few days we forget and move on....

AndrĂ©, no need for any excuses :)  I didn't want to bring up another discussion, it just came to my mind that he knows almost all of the PCBs.
