Hi, I am having a little trouble with the modified Vectrex lightpen,all the options just flicker on the screen when I put the pen up to it. This is the parts list, I wanted to know if there is anything wrong with it, I'm using the Playvectrex circuit

595-SN74LS132N

Quad 2-inp pos-NAND

 

 

660-MF1/4LCT52R222J

1/4 WATT 2.2K OHM 5%

 

 

660-MF1/4LCT52R103J

1/4 WATT 10K OHM 5%

 

 

512-2N3904TF

NPN 40V 200mA

 

 

594-K103M15X7RF53H5

.2LS .01UF 50V 20%

 

 

647-UVZ1C470MDD1TD

47uF 16V 20%

Those are pictures of the circuit. On closer inspection the lead that connects the Phototransistor to the resistors wasn't soldered on right and was only making intermediate contact, so I'll try soldering it tommorow and see if the results are affected. I also sawed down the tip of the marker to put the transistor closer to the point.
