How easy is it to get SSM 2044 chip?

2003-03-24 by Frank Blades

Hi guys,

Having built up confidence to look at Old Crow's 'fix your poly6'
pages with a screwdriver in my hand...I lost my nerve:)

So, I have my tame eletronics expert (degree in ElecEng and a wizz
with the soldering iron) have a look. Battery change went well - five
hours, one evening and it was fixed...

...well fixed-ish! Apparently someone had 'fixed' it before and
someone else (possibly the same miscreant) had stored the beastie in
a damp room... so one l-o-n-g weekend later, and I have been informed
that my SSM 2044 chip's gone. Well, I say 'gone' - it's sat in front
of me as I type this, looking sad and dejected.

Bottom line - how easy is it to get a new SSM 2044 chp? (Please
say 'easy-peasy'!!!)

Frank
