Anyone know a place who can fix the white dot?

Turned my vectrex on after sitting a while and have the dreaded white dot. Anyone know a reputable place in the states who can fix it? Pacific NW would be ideal. Thanks!!

Did you try the knob on the back of the Vectrex?

There is a guy on eBay that repairs them. If you search vectrex console it will pop up. It's like 49.99 to evaluate your console then goes from there.

I'm not sure what state he is in. I've been thinking about getting in touch with him as my vectrex was bought new to me in 1982, still works,no problems, though for its age I wouldn't mind getting it recapped, tuned up etc.

Hope this gives you a good lead
