Re: Multicoloured Tempest vectors

Hey Dave!

Looks like someone whacked the heck out of your purity rings, or the yoke,

Unless someone thinks there can be another cause for that, I say you need to
go through adjusting the monitor out per the 6100 manual.

Check out http://www.spies.com/arcade/manuals/tm183-2.pdf on page 11.

Welcome to vector collecting!
