Too low amperage and the power supply dies from overheating.
For a replacement, try your local Salvation Army, Goodwill or other "thrift" store. It's a common wall wart.

I've got a 9VAC that I'm pretty sure came to me with a USR modem, but the
ma is 650. Question: how critical is the ma? will one that is too high or
low fry the apparatus?
In my experience it is more critical with to low ma as the aparatus can�t operate with to low current but having sligtly to high ma is not detrimental. If high enough I think it can fry the aparatus. I do not know how much more this aparatus can tolerate but a few % more will probably be ok.
Having to high voltage can be very detrimental.
