Well, of course I could be wrong - I haven't run SA on an Asteroids 
board in the past five or so years, and today found a good one in my 
box'o boards and didn't need to again.

I haven't used the CAT box (still have two of these - a regular one, and 
a prototype) in years as I have a nice HP Signature Multimeter (5005A) 
that I use instead when I need to run SA tests, and (AIR) I simply used 
the Atari signature from that sheet to repair the boards. However it has 
been years since I last tried and could easily be wrong...
