Joeyray Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I came across a pretty beat 4 port 5200 model this weekend. Came with a bunch of commons 2 beat joysticks & power supply. What it did not come with is the RF unit? I'm not sure If anything works! Anyone have the 4 port RF unit I could test the system with? I just need to know if the system is dead or not. If this guy works I'll sink the cash in getting a rf unit and rebuilding the joysticks. -JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Allan Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) Well, if you want to take a three-hour drive your welcome to try it on one of mine. Unfortunetly you are at the top of Mass. and I'm more towards the bottom of CT. Hopefully somebody who is closer can let you borrow one.

Thank you for the offer though. -JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterborn Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I have several spare switches, but I really think that they are all fried. Not sure because both of my 4-ports are also unreliable. I live in Woburn and would be willing to "loan" them to you for testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeyray Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 I'm right on the verge of attempting to convert my 4 port over to use a normal TV switch box. It dosen't appear to be that hard and I'm pretty good with a solder iron. I really wish I knew for sure if this thing worked before I started to do anything to it. It won't cost me much for a couple of cap's, some wire and spare time. Thanks for the offer just the same. If I chicken out I just might take you up on it. Joe R.

Waterborn Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Sorry, I just sent out my switch boxes as part of the "share the wealth" thread over in the marketplace. Good luck with the conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
