An oddball tube? Are you sure about that? I thought it was the same as G07's and
most color TV's. If anything, I thought the Amplifone had the oddball tube even though
the pinout was the same as most. If it really does use an odd tube, then I'll have even
more "fun" throwing WG boards on my 720->MH conversion. I really didn't want to
get into changing the pins on the neck board. Btw, any idea what I can use for holding
the chasis transistors for my little hack? I was planning to destroy a bunch of AR2's
to use the heat sinks (since they already have the socket for the transistor and they
are a dime a dozen), however I feel really bad about destroying anything made by
Atari.. Does anyone have a better idea? I'd love to hear it.
