Hi all,
I've had a VT320 terminal that needs repair for some time now, and I've decided I'm never going to get around to fixing it so I'm happy for it to go to a good home. It powers on OK but the picture on the screen is scrambled, as if there is no horizontal sync. It's been a while since I last switched it on, and I don't want to make it worse now by trying again. You can see some rust around the flyback transformer but the screen brightness is ok so I suspect the problem lies elsewhere (unless the flyback also produces other voltages that are now out of spec.)
If anyone is interested in it and can collect it from the Brisbane area (inner city south) it's yours for free. In the extremely rare event that more than one person wants it, it'll go to whoever sounds most capable of repairing it.
If nobody wants it I will be throwing it out!
Should you be able to repair it, it will look something like this.
