I could've imagined... :D

I'll take a look inside once I've dealt with the SDS-8. That has a back
plate that was badly bent. But now it's bent back and the circuitry
looks OK at first glance. No PSU (they were sold in Sweden with external
PSU) but I'll get it hooked up to my bench PSU when testing...

Will let you know regarding the SDS-1000 and keep the group posted with
the progress.
