I went in blind on this repair, to work with just the chassis and no cab or tube was a guessing game, and I guessed wrong. There were a few dead resistors and bad caps, but overall the board was in decent shape. The prior attempts to get the tube started had shown neck glow on the filaments...

I live in Canada, and picked up a rare CRT on a whim. It's a European Model (220V) so I needed a step-up converter, has 3x SCART inputs, S-Vid & Composite so it was hard to resist. I was cleaning out the back and took a pic & posted the tube model, then someone on the CRT Collective (Facebook...

So I helped out a guy with a Blast City Nanao, when he had it would shake horizontally and actually collapsed vertically. I did a full recap, replaced various out-of-spec resistors and cleaned out all the potting compound. The POT/variable resistor for HV. Adj was gunked, so I replaced that...

I just posted about recapping this MS-2930 chassis, I have my caps all set on Mouser but I'm seeing some evidence of prior work that is a little confusing. This area deals with the Narrow/Wide Jumpers if you're putting your monitor in to shmups, there's a few nearby MOSFETs. It looks as if...

So I'm usually repairing PVMs and CRTs, this job is a custom one, owner has a real nice Astro City cab with some jitters. We're doing a full recap and clean, etc. So, I know little about the Chassis from the Astro City cabs, but when I search 'Cap Kits' I usually get an 'MS-29' or similar...

So I just completed a n RGB mod for the JVC TM-1700 and my chassis slid off a plexiglass table I was stupidly using to support it. Bye-bye tube. :( So this Chassis is now available. It's RGB modded, and looked great before it went kerplunk. It could be used for different sized Arcade Cab...

So a little while ago I managed to break a Philips M41 minineck tube. This is what comes stock in a JVC TM-1700PN, or in my case a Victor TM-1700 (JP.) Anyways I didn't pay much for it, but finding a replacement tube is difficult in Canada, where 17" CRT's don't grace our landscape like in...
