@Rick, glad to hear you’ve got your game done! I’m hoping mine doesn’t take as long.

Hey Jeff, Thanks for posting this great site with all its info you have provided. Finally finished my PP2 and it only took 7 years. I had some of the same problems and a bunch of others. Thanks again.

Hello Jeff I just read your rightup on the Multi-Williams boards. I have a Clay Cowgill setup but my CPU board just died. I would like to upgrade to a JROK board that I guess is still in development. I went to the link for his web site but did not see where to get in touch with him to find out how to get one of these boards. Could you help. Thanks

Hey guys. I just picked up a Pub Time Premier darts (monitor version)the other day. I was fortunate enough that it still had the manual in it. If anyone needs spedific info from it - including the method to add an RCA plug for an external tv monitor, shoot me an email.

Hey Jeff. I think I might have fried something in my pp2 pcb. I tried redistributing the power as suggested.

I wanted to test it out, so i ran a couple of wires to a test point and a ground. When i powered it up, there was a puff of smoke from the pcb. Now the board is getting no power.

I hooked them up to what i thought was the power. All the cables routing to the boards were connected to the blue cylinder with the terminals on the top.

Any advice on what to do now and what i might have done wrong.

thanks again.

@Steve, Sorry but I don’t have any experience with those models. Hope you find an answer so you can play your game!

Does anyone know how to hook-up an external CRT monitor to a Pub Time board? Seems like it would be a fairly simple operation, but my knowledge of game electronic schematics is minimal at best. I have a Pub Time model with the internal CRT monitor (Hanatrex) that is broken and I can’t find a replacement for the life of me, so I figured I would just hook-up an external one. Anyone done this before? I think it requires some type of switch. If anyone has any ideas let me know! Also, any ideas on where to find a key to the coin collector? Thanks everyone, great resource!

i have a PP2 that was working just fine until the monitor went out a few months ago. Does anyone have any suggestions at to what kind of replacement i should get? I’ve seen a few generic ones and was wondering if those are okay to use. thanks!

@Chris A: You’re right about the prices on his site. He is in California, so the prices will be higher, but they are very high. Guess if he can get that much for his stuff, then great for him! He could buy one of those Arcade cabinets for the price of a joystick on his site! Wait until these get fixed and are up for sale…
