[TenTec] Corsair-II annual maintenance

[Richards]

Good!    Now you can enjoy that heady sense of self-satisfaction that 
comes form competing an successful repair project.   I bet you are 
feeling pretty stud today !

Me too...    With some guidance from a local ham who maintains our 
17-site linked repeater system, I recently sorted out my  (Bleep -!%$#) 
  TenTec 1254   receiver kit, which NOW WORKS !   It still requires a 
little more tuning and adjustment, but at least I now know why it passed 
all diagnostic tests, but failed to play after it was mounted in the 
case.

So, I share the feeling of exaltation !

Happy days, Gary.

While I had it open, I also wiped the pins of the display driver board and the logic boards with a Q-Tip dampened with CAIG DeoxIT Gold. Now it looks factory new again!
