Quoted from kjgolf:

Can anyone tell me or show me picture of the Squawk and Talk Sound board for EBD 1981 installed? I want to confirm that since I bought a new sound board and the old one has been out for so long that the pin connections are correct as the picture shows and nothing goes on the left side pin connections. ie the twp pin connector on the right side then nothing on the third pint and the long all the way to the left. This may seem elementary but I don't to blow anything on the new board. Also the new board doesn't have any pots but resistors installed where my old one had pots sound volume and speech volume. Why is this??

The board I sent might not have had the POTs? I usually install them but I have had some where resistors were just soldered in place. That might have been one of them. Didn't think to look when I tested it. It was rebuilt a couple years ago. They are inexpensive if you want to install them or send it back and I will. What they are for is to be able to adjust the voice volume and the background separate from each other. The actual master volume is adjusted with the pot on the coin door.

Try it out. It sounded good to me when I tested it. Once the two on the board are set you rarely need to adjust them.

Sorry about that.

Yeah I seem to recall that Big Daddy was temporarily out of the Pots a couple years ago which is why the board has fixed resistors installed. It works perfectly though and sounds great. Perfect blend between voice and background sounds. I tested it before I sent it to you. I had a bunch of these rebuilt and this was the last one.

I refunded your excess shipped several days ago but for some reason it didn't go through. I will send you two Pots for your board but you might not even want to use them after hearing it. Your choice. Of course if you want, you can return the board for a refund too as long as you don't blow it up or damage it.

In your picture you are connecting the speaker wires to the wrong pins. Also, those connectors look pretty-shady. You might want to consider replacing them.

Here's where the speaker connector goes:

The first think I recommend is to rebuild/replace every connector.
