[1000mp] 1000mp parts needed

[Daniel Gage]

thank you for your reply
yes it destroyed the key unit board right behind the vfo, i have spent 3
days repairing the front panel and key unit! the front panel came out nice?
im proud of myself, ha ha
i have repaired the key unit board , at least for now, it was broken in
half, i epoxyed it back together and repaired the circit traces the old
fashion way, with small solid copper wire, rewired each trace with a wire
jumper, it works!! its a little glitchey but it saved the radio, at least
untill i find a new board!!
