[GreenKeys] Model 15 question

[Jim Haynes]

I think if you wait around long enough a Model 15 will turn up near you,
and will be announced on this list.  You could also look at craigslist.
ebay is not very useful except for amusement, since some people offering
15s there seem to think they are worth $500-$2500.  Don't think I have
ever paid for one, it's always been a case of "if you don't take it, it's
going to the dump".

I don't know any source for the antique power connectors.

With those out of the way, I wanted to ask about your Dovetron.  Is yours
one of the MPC-1000 series with LEDs as the tuning indicator?  Or is it 
one of the older ones with a Real CRT indicator?

In the MPC-1000 family I have yet to see two of them alike.  I have one,
and it came with a factory error in the "binary bit processor" PC board
which prevented the threshold corrector from working at all.  If yours
is one of these, get back to me and I'll fill you in with the details on
how to see if yours has the defect and how to fix it.

Now if you have the older model, well I have one of those that I bought
used and it doesn't work and I sure could use a manual or schematic so
I can work on it.  This is the model that has everything on the main
PC board - the later ones have a lot of parts left off the main pc board
and some daughter boards that plug into the main board.
