Welcome aboard !  I have some fruit machines from the UK, but they are not Bally ...  They are or were made by a company called Maygay.  I have "Eastenders", "Only Fools and Horses" and one more Can't think of name (senior moment)!  You will find great folks here and plenty of help !!

Hello. My name is jimmy, I'm an ole guy, just turned 60. I've been in the gaming repair business since around 1980. In 2000 I opened up my own repair shop and have been repairing all kind of electronic equipment. Old arcade games, monitors - LCD & CRT, video game boards, poker boards, just about anything that has an electronic board in it. I have been doing component level repair since 1980 and I'm always up for a challenge. I finally fixed an old Summit reel slot for a home customer after finding parts to the control and cpu boards. My latest project is fixing a bunch of old Omega 903 and 904 boards. I've worked on then at previous places I worked before going on my own but had to start all over collecting data and making a test jig. I'm also a musician/composer. I just played a reunion concert with an old band from 1976 that I was in and it looks like we will be doing some more concerts. I built my own modular synthesizer way back in 1973, designed some of the circuits, etched all the circuit boards, and it still sounds great after not firing it up for almost 35 years. I'm so back into it I'm building and adding on more modules. lol
Anyway, I'm glad I found this forum and sorry for probably to much info about myself.

Hi Jimmy
"Modular synthesizer"
Interesting. By chance do you like the group "Yes" and specifically Rick Wakeman?
I was just reading a little on the early synthesizers.

Hi! Yes a modular synth. I just designed some new modules for it, sent the gerber files off to a board house and got them back and I've been stuffing parts on the pcb's today.
Back in '73 I heard "Switched on Bach" and also ELP (Emerson. Lake, and Palmer) first and got the synth bug then. I heard "Yes" later an of coarse I liked them also. But Keith Emerson really brought the modular synth to the progressive rock and classical rock scene.

Sorry, hi Dave! Nah, actually better sounding then Moog. Most of the circuits I used, plus some of my own design, were from a newsletter started by Bernie Hutchins from Ithaca NY and he called it "Electronotes". He's still onlone with some of them archived and others you can purchase from his website. This was back in the early 70's through the 80's. Others donated their designs also in the newsletter. Great stuff.

Awesome. I'm thinking back in those days.....Shows my age. The Moog was the thing. I'm glad to see someone who has improved on the technology. The '70s were a long time ago and unfortunately I graduated in the middle.    :cool_thumb_up:

Hey Shagarooni,
  I remember the MOOG, but that was Maurice "Moog" Johnson.  He was our 6 ft 6 in center on our High School basketball team.  But that was back in the middle 50's so I guess he was ahead of his time !   :24:   :24:   (Boy, am I old !!! )  :duh:

Hello everyone, Small time slot machine owner, I'm 23 and have been around these machines all my life. They are 1 of my 3 hobbies (Drag Racing/EFI calibrator as a side job/Slot Gaming) Trying to learn more about them Through forums and this is the first one I remember a fellow member telling me about a few years back, I stumbled upon the old website an hour ago LOL. took me a bit to make it on over to this forum and register.. Anyways, I'm happy to be on board and ready to dig through the technical articles As I have a few machines I'd like to repair on my own and branch off from having to rely on someone to make it right.. Thanks for having me
