For the Barco guys! (and the rest . I received this picture from a R762119 coming from a 1991 Barco 1200 with Sony tubes. This seems to be an very earlie model? It seems to use the discrete Motorola transistors that Marquee uses too. 1991 neck board by Radio Head, on Flickr In these pictures are the 3x R762292 (coming 1200 from 92-93 and 1209-1209/2 from 1994-1997 ) (original with VPA13 130Mhz sanyo chips) for Panasonic tube and 1x R7621195 (coming 1200 from 92-93) for Sony tubes (this one is modified to 180MHz with VPA18 and voltage regulator). You can see brand new VPA18 chips and voltage regulators ready to be mounted. Custom heat sink. Someone tested 3x R762292 with P19LUGs in a 1609 they light up but with G2 to max. (probably need a jump wire somewhere on pins) Possible these could be modded 130Mhz-->180Mhz R762292 in newers 1209s / 909 frames. 180mhz neck card by Radio Head, on Flickr In the schematic section of the Barco 1200 there are pictures of schematics of the R762292 neckboard.

One question from the person that send me these pictures is why does the R762292 with P19LUGs in a 1609 work with maximum G2? Is there a simple solution? Can we help him?

Id be interested to know what the HV was set to, and how they ran so hard without a new splitter every week and a new quad every few hours.

From the discussion in the link below it seems that for LUG tubes to work in a 1209 or 1200 with the R762292 neckboards, the KH grid on pin 7 has to be connected to ground with a 1 Meg resistor. A better way is to connect the pin 7 (KH) to pin 5 (grid 1) to get lower noise. On the 1209 it means adding a wire. On the 1209s it might be necessary to drill the hole where pin 7 goes so it is disconnected from ground and can be connected to pin 5. Do not know exactly what needs to be done with the R762292 neckboards since I do not have one to check. Anyone? www.avsforum.com/forum/16-crt-projectors/1134455-new-green-p19lug-barco-1209-a.html

Perhaps an interesting point for those using lug tubes in 1209s but also in Marquee is to pay attention to this KH grid. On the Marquee it is connected to ground with a 330k resistor but Barco says to use a bigger than 1Meg 1/2 Watt resistor there. Sony seems to use a 10 Meg. This is very important because the KH grid lowers the capacitance between all grids. Using the right resistor seems to improve the focus too probable because it lowers noise.
Now Eisemann says that the ground is not very clean on the neckboards so he uses grid 5 for reference. That should improve the focus even more. Because grid 1 and KH are on the same potential now there is no capacitive loss between them.

What are you planning to do with these boards?

Hi Casey I do not have them yet. We where hoping they would be high bandwidth neckboards for the 909 but the signals and voltages differ to much.
