Well the up side is you can download decent schematics of the 101 (on the group's yahoo
site), so I'd think anyone reliable who's worked on stuff from that era ought to be okay.
Good question as to who works on them and knows them well.
Doesn't really shout out that it's a power problem if the patch bay works (you didn't say if
it works fine or that you just hear something). My 101 works fine but my 100 also has a
dead main output while the separate VCA out is just fine as well as all the other outs.
