Do you have an Altek lamp driver board? If not, I think Fathom, like other Bally/Sterns from this era will have flicker issues with LED's in a CPU driven lamp socket. Even with non-ghosting one's. If I'm wrong, please correct.

Quoted from Aurich:This thread is not helping me with wanting a Fathom.
Dude. There's no denying it. Fathom is an example of early solid state pinball at its finest. Perfect artwork. Perfect layout. Superb lock/release system for two or three ball multiball. And an almost perfect sound package. Just wish there was a little more variety in the sound bites. There was a dude named Scapino who made a VP version of Fathom years ago that had some music from, I think, James Bond's Thunderball at the beginning. Wish that was in there.
