Mo Junk

Times are tight & getting tighter, so when one of the ops offered up a couple boxes of junk towards his bill I jumped at it. Like I need more junk here... Anyway, aside from the economic aspect of this junk is the fact that more & more of these parts are becoming obsolete & discontinued almost daily. There are a pile of WG monitor chassis' among this junk & most of them are priced at just what you'd have to pay for nearly any one of the parts that you may need. WG has discontinued most of the width coils and the price of what I could find left out there still available was $12 & up, so a width coil may soon be worth having a spare parts chassis on hand. The ones that have remote boards are at the current price of just the used remote board alone affording you a backup width coil, regulator, HOT, diodes, obsolete standoff resistors that are frequently needed, neck bd, xsistors & a host of other parts to keep your chassis running at no extra cash layout.

Of course, for the newbies that need to practice their soldering skills before diving into their pride & joy monitor, game bd, whatever, and smoking it out of the gate, these will make excellent training exercise boards. Hmmm... come to think of it, after seeing some of y'all's soldering jobs in pics... maybe they'd work out well for you not so newbie guys that need a little refresher course :-)

Now that the K4600, K4700, K4800, K4900, K5500, & K7000 width coils are obsolete & no longer available these parts chassis' are even more of a desirable thing to have on the back shelf for spare parts.

Seems all the monitor chassis junk is gone & this is just a conglomeration of odds 'n ends of junk now. I'll check with local ops to see if I can find y'all some more chassis' for spare parts.
