Re: [IRCA] broken radio

[Tim Hills <thills@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bert,

If your in the US I could fix it for you. I give collectors/hobbyists 
who are going to use the radio a very low labor rate and cost+10% on 
parts. Shipping is handled by a return label/postage sent with the 
radio. I make 0 on shipping. I'm a Tech, not a shipper. I specialize in 
the Radio Shack DX series but I have the experience and equipment to 
repair anything I can find a schematic for.

I've got 35+ Years as a Tech. I've only worked on one 2010 before but 
they're no worse to work on than the Sangean 803/RS DX-440 that I've 
repaired a dozen or more of. I'm sure I have the service 
manual/schematic on my hard drive somewhere or can get it online.
