Hi. I'm back with a couple of more questions about working on the SX-62 I
bought. I've looked over the radio and spent many hours listening to it. I
initially thought and was reassured that working on the radio was within my
capabilities. I've decided that although I have the desire to work on it,
I'm worried that I'll end up screwing up the radio. Its too nice of a radio
for me to muck around in it and REALLY mess it up. I've narrowed my options
down to the following. Option 1 is to have someone recap the radio, replace
any questionable electrical components and generally clean it up to bring it
up to a more current electrical state. Option 2 is to just resell the radio
for what I paid for it and keep the memories.
I've got concerns that it will cost more to have the work done than the
radio's really worth. If I had the work done to recap the radio, have the
electrically questionable parts replaced and have it cleaned up what would
it what would be a fair price for the radio ? Like many of you, I have to
assure the head accountant that I'm not just throwing the money away to keep
peace around here.
Mike
