I revisited the model 4 a few years back. Someone tossed one at a hamfest

They knew from the beginning that you had to sell new software all the time.
Unfortunately it died some weeks later.


So fix it. 90% of the problems on those things have to do with bad capacitors
and connectors, and they are very easy to work on. Not a lot of actual
interconnects either. Shotgunning electrolytics may well fix it right up.
