Yeah this one is for the "What the H***" and should promptly be filed in the "worthless Repairs thread"
Uniden walkie/scanner guy brings it in. Says hey Bro... (stop right there throw it in the trash bin) .. I dug this out of the trash and opened it up but I broke the battery wire off. Me- "do you know if it works?" Oh yeah it will work if you sorder that wire back on. Me- "Why did you open it?" OH i saw it was full of little baby roaches... W.T.F. I must look like the exterminator. I mean who would want that crap in their shop.? He's an old man and a long term customer and was as serious as a day is long so I have compassion and empathy... (really? WTF!!!) OK I grab one of my little plastic boxes (betty crocker great project boxes) and seal that POS up. I then told him it was more than just soldering on a wire for me to work on it I have to bath it in alcohol and then dry it. (I would beg for an ultrasound right now but mama said NO) I just went speechless... why? oh why did I not be more forceful and say "I can't help you with this one!"
Oh well I will document this for your amusement and sadistic pleasure.
I am now curious if it will work... i have to see it to believe it.
Anyway I don't think I need technical advise on this yet but I'm sure some will have a few choice words when you see the freaken pictures. So as Dave Jones would say "Lets crack er open and see whats inside!"
Bear in mind he said he already cleaned it...
