What does everyone think is the going rate for replacing a blown

If it is the 1969, the part is relatively cheap. The labor is the
killer. I would think it would be in the area of $50.

That seems cheap. (?)

Depends. For most AM only rigs, that is more than half the cost.

Vinnie S.

How much was it in 1969?

$5 !

Had to be more than that...if it was invented yet. (fallopian tubes
instead)
