"How creative are you in trying new things?"

Keith, I am willing to try anything you suggest. I am comfortable 
making simple repairs, etc. I do not have electronic testing 
equipment but willing to purchase if necessary. My last "repairs" 
were to a Thomas Organ in the 80's and was successful. Thank you for 
any suggestions. Humphries.
