I am linking a fellow to this post. He is looking for the motherboard/frame. Might not be worth shipping, but he will post here.
Thanks!

Thanks Curt... Hi Rod,
I'm interested in finding the motherboard (frame too since they are somewhat integral) for a Barco 1208/2. Is yours a possible match? You indicate that yours is 'dead'... any idea what died??

I believe Rod mentioned that the only thing dead was a video amp (used on the ends of the tubes). Shouldn’t affect you if all you want is the motherboard/backplane.

Be aware that shipping will not be cheap (Canada to US).

That's correct Kal. I'll try to facilitate anyone wanting parts. I'm not an expert so you'll have to dumb down the tech speak to get what you are after. If by MB/backplane you mean tray that pulls out form the front of the unit that's easy enough. if you mean the board(s) bolted to the chassis below the tubes (ie. a complete tear down of the unit) then that poses a few issues aside from shipping costs.

I need to confirm approximate weight and an address to calc shipping but you could also do that at your end. Can send collect I suppose.

If anyone is driving thru Sudbury, Ontairo though..... haha
