Will do  ^^^ Might be a while before i'll get to test it in the game, as the clients pin its going in was bought at an auction, not working with an acid damaged mpu (which i finished repairing today, hopefully it'll be ok, seemed to boot up fine on the bench, dont have the game here to test properly), a couple of missing coils etc so i have a bit of work ahead of me!! Still have to check power supply board, driver boards and displays before i can do anything else on it.

I'm booked in for most of next week to repair some of this particular clients games, he's in Armidale/ Uralla,i have to do his Gtb Panthera, his Gorgar (another non working auction piece), as well as help him with stencilling a Gtb Card Whiz cab. Hoping to have the pop bumper board by Friday, but its no big deal if it doesnt arrive this week, as im leaving next Monday to do these games and i think this Panthera may have bigger issues than one missing pop bumper board  *!@

Having had a look at your website, no doubt i'll be buying a few more boards in the future, either for clients pins or my own  *%*
Oh btw i have downloaded the assembly instructions as you mentioned in the email  ^^^

Thanks again... Mitch

I just checked that manual and I am amazed that I left the schematic diagram out of it???

I have just ammended it so please download again if you want the schematic diagram.

It's odd that nobody has ever mentioned it to me - even you - hahaha

Hi Mike, the kit arrived this morning, thanks heaps  ^^^

I have assembled it already, only took about 20 minutes to do and have tested it on the bench, worked a treat!!
Very well designed and laid out board, very impressive indeed!!  *%*

should be able to try it in the clients game next week.

Thanks again, for you help and speedy service  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

Hi again Mike, i installed the pop bumper board in the clients Gtb Panthera this week (after i got the rest of the game working), works a treat  ^^^ ^^^
As i said before, well thought out board. I also like addition of the LEDs so you can see whats happening and the test switch is also a nice little feature i think  *%*

Thanks again.. Cheers, Mitch

Glad it sorted out the problem. The originals of this board are subject to a lot of modifications and work arounds and also use parts that are hard to find these days that's why I started from scratch when designing this replacement.
