No reason why it can't be fixed. Question 1 is: do you have the diagrams and instructions to match the board? If not you'd need to post a "looking for" want message on Groups such as this. Second: Is someone willing to have a go at fixing the board or at least be talked through some basic testing after a questions 101 round here on the group? In reality, these circuits are not really hard to fix if you do the homework and are willing to put in the time. With the exception of ID circuits using Prom Chips, most people should be able to find parts allowing return of even vintage boards to regular service. Just let us know and we'll try to help... s. > My 6 meter repeater is still using a Maggiore Electronic Lab CORI > board. The schematic print date is 8-86.
