- The apparent first bingo machine from this manufacturer is Bally's 1937 'Line-Up'.
According to Phil Hooper's Bingo website, there were four schematic diagrams for 'Bright Lights', each for a range of serial numbers as follows:
W-342c - up through game 1000.
W-342Ac - games 1001 to 2500.
W-342Bc - games 2500 to 2800. The schematic is marked "This diagram for games which have 5 relays in each search relay bank."
W-342Cc - games C-2801 and up. The schematic is marked "This diagram for serial numbers c-2801 and up."
The "Operating Instructions" manual (not shown here) lists among its backbox parts a "Sounder Assembly". Bally referred to their knockers as "sounders". We did not find reference to this assembly on any of the four schematics. If this bingo game has a knocker in the backbox, we would like to see a picture of it.
If anyone has access to this game to make pictures or otherwise identify the Sounder Assembly, please contact us.
