It's a little switching power supply. It steps up the 9V input voltage to something a few volts greater than 12V to feed the 12V regulator. If your 12V is correct, it is probably working. Rob. On 8/22/2017 4:30 PM, Adrian Graham via cctalk wrote: Hi folks, Failing Atari PSU aside I remember

Keep an eye out for a Night Owl 7" LCD Security monitor. It has dual composite inputs and is a great companion for my //c and is also exceedingly convenient for taking to meet ups. Much easy to lump around than a CRT. Michael. On Wed, 23 Aug 2017 at 8:57 am, Pete Lancashire via cctech < cct...@cl

I do have at least one Apple IIc monitor around here, the small green-screen as originally sold with the machine. Not sure where you're located, but if it's practical, I'd certainly consider taking a trade for it. As for generic older crt, I am very fond of my BMC green screen, ca. 1982 or so. It'
