Not on Sunday afternoon when the transmitter is down and the boss is screaming

Could you elaborate on that particular trouble? I'm having a hard time
figuring out how an XLR connector could go bad or what you would need
one to get back up.
In this case, the XLR connector didn't go bad, the %^$%#@!!! TFT remote
control unit blew up, with a nice hole in the PC board of the horribly
undersized power supply and all sorts of collateral damage. And one
of the other stations in town had a spare Moseley unit that I was able
to grab, but not the connectors for the thing.
I swear, my contract is going to say "no Sparta consoles, no TFT STLs"
soon.
