<< Arthur,
    Glad to see you made it over here.
 
 First of all, I would say that the D100-D103 and Q901 and Q902 are all OK.
 (since you are getting +/- 26V and you can see a dot when you turn up the
 brightness)
 
 Use your multimeter and check the x and y outputs from the game. You should
 see a DC voltage close to 0, and an AC voltage of something (sorry, can't
 remember about where is should be). Basically, if you get an AC voltage of
 0, or a DC voltage that's stuck on some value that's not real close to 0,
 then you probably have a bad output section on your game board.

Thanks for the help Jeff; its great to receive such a quick response. Per
the zanen206.html, I checked the fuses F600 and F700 of the deflection board
(instructions say R600 and R700 fuses) - stays constant at 0 volts. It says
check for +/- .5 volts, if between 5 and 15 volts then check the X and Y
amplifiers on the GAME board.... I think this is what you're referring to
also. So at least its not 15 volts, but not detecting anything - maybe just
a bad reading, though. Game plays, just blind (even made it through first
three levels, woo hoo!).
Arthur.
