I think that's an excellent offer.  In the absence of Elecraft 
supporting these older boards (as I stated in my first post, when I 
asked Elecraft to repair my KIO3 they declined), it would be great if we 
could compile a small database of people like yourself willing and able 
to do proper repair ... for a reasonable fee, of course.

If somebody was willing to do this on a regular basis, I suspect that 
many of us would be willing to simply donate older/excess boards.  I 
have a couple that I would.

If you have bad KIO3B boards, please sell them to those of us that can repair them and keep them in stock for future needs.
