TapperP Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Long story short: I have a heavy sixer with no sound output (just static noise). I have tried adjusting the ferrite core with no effect. I am not skilled in electronics at all. I'd like to get it fixed, and/or also AV modded (preferably with the UAV). I'm in NC, USA. Anyone here currently accepting such work? I would want to see some feedback regarding past work before sending anything over, of course. I contacted electronicsentimentalities last week but they did not respond, so I'm guessing they are not currently doing business(?). If you have or know of another such reputable modding/repair business in USA that is currently taking work please let me know. Thanks.

socrates63 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 In the AtariAge Facebook group, someone asked a similar question. Couple names popped up there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/atariage/permalink/10158163483485255/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Karl G Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Jesse Hardesty mentioned in that Facebook thread is @-^CrossBow^- on here, who has done work on a number of systems. He did an AV mod and refurb work on my 7800, and I'd definitely recommend him In case you didn't know, there is a User Feedback Forum here, so you can see what others have to say about the work of anyone you may be considering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TapperP Posted July 13, 2020 Author Share Posted July 13, 2020 (edited) Thank you both. I have now acquired another heavy sixer that is working perfectly, but I would like to get it AV modded someday. The one with broken sound is being returned to seller for refund.

retrogoober Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Hi Tapper, I'm in NC and have successfully modded 3 2600's so far if you would consider, NOT an expert but growing knowledge for sure, happy to consider, all 3 were UAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have any feedback on Atariage about those mods I would love to take a look. I know heavy sixers can be a little more challenging to mod, but what I want is a pretty simple version of things, i.e. I don't need input drilled into the case.
