Ya know, you really scared me.
Luckily, you were wrong. :-)
Both 5 amp fuses on the deflection board were blown. Built LV2000, went to
replace both fuses --- cursed loudly because it was 11:00 PM and I only had
1 5 AMP slow blow left.
Today bought more fuses. Tested board with new fuses -- -26 working, no
+26V. Gloated that I was right, installed LV2000, played Tempest.
In a way hard to pin down, the pictures actually looks better. It's like the
colors are brighter, or sharper. I thought maybe it was just me being happy
my burnt hands weren't in vain, but my wife agrees with me.
