Need pcb repair - please recommend a good tech in the US!

Post by drboom »

OK - so I have no idea who to send these to stateside, and I'd like to find a good tech that can solve the issues I'm having.

Battle Garegga - sprites will be 'shimmery' until I flex the board, then they return to normal.

Twin Cobra - Sprites change color or totally fade out, until I flex the board and then they return to normal. Ribbon connectors should be just fine. Installed totally new ones and it didn't do a thing.

The Glob (on Ms. Pac board) - no picture, no sound, game will not boot and one of the chips gets nuclear hot quickly.

Progear (jp) - battery exploded. Lots of acid ate quite a few traces. This is a job for someone with a lof of patience and good skills. I can take and send pics if needed.

If its a time issue, I'd like to try and get the first two done by the weekend of February 17th as I have a meet that weekend. The other two can wait.

FYI, if your Progear's battery exploded, it now also needs to be phoenixed :(
