It figures they would go quickly.

Any update on that $100 box of useful boards?

Took a chance and swapped my r762700 for an r7621175. They looked compatible. The problem was identical. Sad

Curt, I could really use that 100 $ box of spare cards now...

A box arrived today from Curt. Tried to swap the R7621127 and immediate result! No flashing and picture right away. Thumbs Up

However, red is very dim. Full brightness then 1 second fade to dim and stays there until I change something (resolution) where it goes back to bright and then dims down to low again.
The picture in the red tube is not distorted.

Any ideas?

Well, that is one to remember! THe 1127 is the V board. Why it would cause flashing is beyond me.

As for the red, try swapping the CRT cards.

Could a bad chrimp on the automotive style bullet connectors for what I assume is the glow voltage be the cause? It came off when I tried to swap the boards.

No, that's the ground wire, that's not it.

Ok. Original neck boards are r762701 and I have some r7621195's laying around which look identical apart from the red wire sticking out of the crt socket. The boards inside look identical. Source for spares/compatible in any way?

Swapping red and green in the meantime.

Same. Perhaps even a litte weaker red. Responds to black cut off and white gain in the menus but still 100 times less bright than green and blue.

Hmm, did I swap back to my old board with no red just to try it and didn't swap back?! Need to search my old thread.

Yup! :facepalm:

It's up and running now and I found some DIPA in the refrigerator to celebrate.

Thanks oce again Curt!
