Hi Stuart,

Sorry - "the old-fashioned way" is no longer cost-effective. Silicon,
software and numerically-controlled board build/assembly are so much cheaper
these days than gears, slug racks, cams, dial cords and hand-wiring (not to
mention plug-in coils!)

When the product breaks, replace it. Repair tech man-hours are no longer
cost-effective either.

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ
