Does anyone have any schematics? Info? On the PONG type game called
FLIM-FLAM?


I have a Flim Flam PCB that I repaired. At the time I was working
on it, I couldn't find anything about it. I did find someone that
had a manual for it (no schematics) for $20; I needed the schems, so
I passed. Ended up fixing the board by "shot gun" method. One
strange thing about the game is that the paddles would move both
up and down as well as left and right. Don't know if it's suppose
to do that or not.

I am fairly sure I have a set of Flim-Flam schematics in the files.
Remind me who made it though...

I have a number of Meadows schematics in the schematic/manuals file
cabinets (six or so cabinets). Quite sure I have Flim-Flam - email me.
