Well, i would say that it is OK. We have had noumerous of posts over
the years about synth repair and I can't recall that someone shouted
OFF-TOPIC.

Infact I have a hard time recalling anyone shouting OFF-TOPIC.

I think that this reflect the more relaxed discussion that we usually
have here.

Also, DIY synth repair is a relative to DIY synth mods which is
relative to DIY synth building. It touches also the form of
systematic fault-finding that a DIY syntbuilder needs to be able to
perform as well. So in a reasnable amount of volume I would say that
it is on-topic.

Actually, if we where only discussing DIY synth building this would
have been a much more quiter list than it is, and then Synth-DIY is
much more quiter that AH and other lists.

This is my personal view, but I think that this is roughfly shared
with many others on the list.

Cheers,
Magnus
