[GreenKeys] Ruined? You decide....

Other than the filter caps, what did the boards replace? At first look,
this seems to be a decent set of drop-in components for someone who
actually wants the thing to perform at peak, without playing with it for
weeks.

It appears that one or more rectifiers are present.. were the originals
vacuum or solid-state (selenium)? In either case, how are the higher
voltage levels dealt with?

Were the original parts saved, or discarded? I generally return old parts
to the cust.. they look at me funny, but I explain that should they ever
decide to sell it, the new buyer might be tickled pink to see them.
