Any 577 owners out there got advice to share ?
My first 577 (a D1) was very dim ¡ª and it came with a spare CRT ¡ª but essentially worked for a while after I got it home. Then it suddenly went completely dark. Rapid onset blackness seemed unlikely to be CRT wear so I checked the Z-axis and sure enough, two transistors (I don¡¯t recall which) in that circuit had failed.
I thought there was a chance I might have made notes of the repair, and sure enough I did:
