Right... they _are_ still out, though I've cleaned everything up. I probably have a 7809 lying around somewhere (I do save such things when I find them in CD players and consumer devices). I was really just contemplating how to restore the board to work in a real PET, mostly because of the video issue - I never did get that simple video circuit to lock on the signal from the 3032 last year. I did _see_ the ROM BASIC splash message, but on a bog-standard Panasonic B&W "security monitor" (that works with an 1802 and 1861, BTW), I could never get the video stable left-to-right. > But I accept no liability ;-) That's OK. Your initial comment and the follow-up picture explains it all to me. I saw the brown wires to the 5-pin plug and got about 18VAC from it, but never put 2+2 and figured "center-tap".
