How to build a Monitor from a broken home TV....

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.video.arcade.collecting (More info?)

This is just to remind the newsgroup that I was the first one to teach
how to do this...with my chassis of course....I have hundreds of
customers doing this and they are very happy they learned how to save
money....can you believe you can build a 25 inches monitor ( $350.00)
with a broken tv and my $90.00 chassis ?
I never say my monitors are brand new....no...they are REFURBISHED, yes
like new..no burns, bright and cheap.

I sell them on eBay and I have 99 percent good feedback....so that
means 99 out of 100 monitors are very good.....this is great for any
business.......buy my monitor/chassis and you will have a electronic
engineer who will teach you and help you fix all your problem.....try
the other company and call them toll free ( if they have one) and
compare !!!!!

I receive a lot of emails like this:

Dear Victor,

Just wanted to say thank you again for the monitor and
great service you provided. Rarely do I find a
business ran in such a friendly and helpful manner. I
will try to give you my highest recommendation to
anyone who might be interested in your products.

Best regards,

Victor!

You're the man!!!

I've successfully hooked up one of the chassies to an Samsung CRT with
an
yoke that was about 58 ohms on the vertical vinding and the picture is
excellent! I've tried many different chassies before with this kind of
CRT
and all have suffered from quite much of an vertical foldover which
hasn't
been possible to adjust with an resistor over the vinding.

I'll connect an Toshiba CRT in a near future and see if that works too,
but at the moment I'm very happy since I have 2 of these Samsung CRTs
and
the CRTs themselves are in excellent shape without screen burn.

Martin!

..............................................................

Got the monitor -- arrived in perfect condition and worked GREAT !!

thanks for your help

Hi Victor,
I installed the first monitor board in a Track and Field and it works
great........
I really appreciate all the help you are giving me on this stuff.
I will check the impedence on those 12 pin necks and let you know what
I
need...
$65 for a chassis is a lot better than buying a whole new monitor.
Thanks again,
Rick C. ( yes the one on the Newsgroup !!!!)


Well to finish....remember you can learn about monitors and how to
order the right chassis at:

http://www.8lines.com/datatech/monitor.html

Yes....the other company does not have a tech site to teach how to
use/install their monitor's chassis......


thanks for reading & buying my chassis/monitors !!!

You never replied to my other post. Do you now have a 19" chassis with
a pincushion control?

What about the pincushion problem on the Wells-Gardner 4600 tubes?

I really don't know what you guys are so down on these for... I'm
running three of them with no major issues whatsoever!

Haven't tried a 25" yet though... going to soon.

YMMV,
Rob

IMHO, I have to agree, I have had a bunch of monitors from Vic and no
problems either and they are bright and clear, of course you have to modify
your input connector but if you can get over that its all good from there on
in , although for the bare chassisI have had problems locating a tube in the
right specs to use with the chassis, maybe the locals throwing out TVs arent
aware of my CRT needs!!!!

Oh yeah... I have not seen one of these things since 1994 and about 20
minutes ago in rolls a Dig Dug for repair that has one of these chassis in
it... Nice picture, wrong! You know when Pooka and Fygar come around the top
of the screen and drag in the Namco label?.?.? Well the picture is DARK AS
HELL during this segment. When Dig Dug does his thing and the picture
transitions from full yellow to mostly black guess what, the brightness
increases ALL BY ITSELF. I put the GO7 chassis on the tube and it was fine.

Garbage!

GEE I SEE MORE SPAM SPAM SPAM

Stop it. And stop taking credit for Randy Fromm's previous work about tube
swapping.

Your chassis are made by Jen Shinn one of the lowest end ones out there. You
can view their web page that you just copied details onto your own here:
http://www.jenshinn.com.tw/j220.htm

They are poor and do not support original arcade chassis yokes correctly and
have no pincushion control. They also do not support positive or separate
video sync without modification.

Definitely not something for real arcade game owners. Perhaps for the MAMErs
out there who want to waste time finding matching yokes and don't know what
an isolation transfomer is, and that's about it.

do you know if these need an ISO or just plug 120AC straight since they come
with an outlet plug already?

thanks

Hi Kelly,

I never used an ISO on any of mine and there were no strange bars or
magnetic field effects...
