[TenTec] Corsair 2 - Fix or sell it as is?

[Bill Nicolson]

Steve,

I would fix the radio myself (like restoring a old car) all the while  you 
would be learning new things and making new friends at the same time. I 
would approach this, one problem at a time, using the vast resources of this 
great list.
I think the satisfaction you will get will out weight the negative you are 
felling right now.
Good luck de Bill K2rig
