I must have about 3 or 4 of these boards, all bad. Does anyone repair
these?

I do.. but considering worst case (flyback - 25.00 + shipping) and
you'll want to cap it (cap kit - 9.00) and what I would charge to fix
it? PLUS shipping both ways?

Cheaper to buy a brand new chassis on ebay or from 8 liners, and it
will even have a remote adjustment board.

Only way out is for you to man up and fix them yourself. Best I can
say ont he matter.

Anyone got a HT/LOPT spare for one of these? My paperboy one has split clean
in half or sell me a duff one which looks like the LOPT OK I'm in the
Uk, but paypal funds waiting!

Add to that the fact that your can't GET the flybacks, let alone at
$25....

Try www.fastronics.com
They do awsome work on any Chasis.

Well, honestly, I can't say I've ever had one blow up on me (although
I've seen a couple of these chassis with blown LOPTs), but their weak
focus is reknown.

just needed the hot and the fly...

Does anyone know why it's so hard to get flybacks and other parts for
this thing (outside of taking them off a bad chassis)? Offhand, I can
think of my Pacman and Tron that have 4900's in them and it sounds I
better start praying for them to never die on me.

Phwehehe. Man up ... hehe that's a good one Matt.
Yea I'd like nothing better than to fix them myself. I'd like to fix
every electronics problem I come across. I have a scope, a Rom
burner, soldering iron, a half working Pace MBT box, used to have a
logic probe. But with noone to show you how to use these tools it
makes it hard in this neck of the backwaters. Lima=Lost in Middle
America. But I keep on a tryin...
