Although I haven't checked to see if it's available, it may be easier to
just replace the whole encoder board rather than attempting
desoldering/soldering over and over. Eventually the circuit traces will be
damaged. The encoder just sits on a tiny 1 inch by inch (approx.) circuit
board.

That small PC board was used for the optical encoder in the R8. That's
why there are parts missing on it with the R8B version. I eliminated the
board and soldered the three wires directly to the terminals on the
encoder.
