Usually, that problem indicates a failure of one of the POKEY chips. You
can enter self test to try to confirm this. Also pay attention to the audio
test because the failing chip may present symptoms as missing tones.
POKEY chips are available in 7800 series Ball Blazer cartridges and from a
variety of folks on the net for $5-$10 each.
Good luck,

Subject: VECTOR: Vector: Another Tempest Question
Hello All,
I just acquired a Tempest for my collection. There is a problem with it.
It only moves counterclockwise. I'm sure some of you have had the same
problem. Please send your thoughts/fixes for this problem. Your help is
appreciated.
Thanks,
Matthew Murray
