I haven't posted at Atari Age since sometime in late 2008! Whew.

Anyway, my Taiwan light sixer serial# is: 81034654

Mine says "S/N: 13601N".
Made in Sunnyvale, CA.

Bought mine at a local Game Xchange store, found it in the Employees Only section, and they told me it was untested and considered non-working.
Took it home and replaced the two controller ports and fixed the color adjustments-- the unit plays perfectly now.

I have the speaker grills in my console and the channel select switch.

I also forgot to mention mine it NTSC. Sorry for the double-post but the edit button on my first post is missing for some reason.

Found this bad boy in my apartment building's basement, posted about in the "Rescued!" thread

This was dead, mildewy, and full of dirt when I found it, cleaned it up, soldered the power connector back on, and it works wonderfully.



Region: NTSC
Manufacturer: Taiwan: Dimerco
Speaker Slits: Yes
A/B Channel select: Yes, hole and switch (switch is way up in there, reachable with a screwdriver, not a finger)
Serial: 884677-T
Date on inside label: 31, OCT, 1980 HALLOWEEN!
All switches in tact

After:

Just resurrected:

Woody L6er: Taiwan
SN= 457621
has slits and ch switch.

Needed select switch, voltage regulator, resoldered power socket and ribbon wire, and repaired 2 traces+ a short from bad previous repair attempts.

Atari
NTSC
Sunnyvale
S/N: 29587 (just the number, no letter at the end)
Speaker slots
Channel select

Perfectly functional, and near-pristine cosmetically. The orange trim around the switch console is completely intact, for a change.

EDIT: Wow - looks like I might have one of the oldest light-sixers here!

"Star Ship, out of danger?"
So you are saying it will help others to live long and prosper?
Or "It's already dead!"

There's actually nothing wrong with it. I just needed parts. It will live again as the person who bought parts from it wants the rest of it now since it was apparently a factory test system at one time. So I'll be parting a different one as well soon enough.

That is sweet! Just a minor touchup on the orange paint around the top and it would be perfect.

[kankan313rd]
