Default What to do with WILDLY modified HW-7

Hello all,

I have a HW-7 that I recently acquired on a whim - it's been HEAVILY
modified - RIT, CW filter, new front end on a home-built board, new
power connector (yucky one), and other little mods and extra parts inside
all over the place! And - you guessed it - it's stone cold dead. Any
thoughts I where to begin trouble shooting such a wreck? Or is it worth
even trying, given that most of the mods are on homemade boards with
no documentation - no idea if they ever even worked. I've thought about
just selling it again or ripping out everything and turning the case into a
home built receiver of another design or housing an SST-20 xcvr in it.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Dave WB7AWK
