Just stumbled upon your club. I have a Countdown that has taken me 3 years to get up and running using a Pascal board. Transistor problems... Love this machine, played the hell out of it as a 15 year old every day after school. While I was going through the process of getting it running, I wanted to drop it off of a bridge, now that I have a better understanding of how to make them work... I'd like to find another... Love the Pascal board, but found out the hard way that everything else has to be taken care of before plugging it in, or you WILL... fry the board. Do those resistor mods !!!
