[TenTec] Any hope for broken Scout 20M module??

I recently bought a used Scout and when checking out the 20m module, I found
the it was intermittent.  Sometimes it worked and sometimes not.  I opened
the case and when carefully inspecting it I found that the crystal was bent
all the way over and one of the leads was loose and practically broken.
Well, as soon as I touched it the lead broke completely.  Now the module
always causes the Scout display to show 142.0 indicating a module that is
not installed correctly.  My question - could I find a replacement for the
crystal and replace it or should I just find replacement module?  Thanks for
any thoughts??
