I've owned two. Both had problems with the "pot metal"
right-angle lever thingies that operate the module
band switches- you owners know which ones I mean.
I don't know what to call them. They break and mung
the band swtiching. It's a clunky design idea-
right up there with the PTO band switching in an ART-13.
It might have worked if the production people hadn't
tried to save a few pennies on metal for the levers.
If you've had one for 42 years and haven't had one
of those levers break, you've lived a charmed life.
Unless I found a handful of replacement levers,
I wouldn't want another one.
