Vintage Electronics Repair. Worth The Risk? Ebay Purchase Regret, Or Easy Fix?

Описание: Hi Folks,
Here's a Firefox from Grandstand (1983). The seller warned that this could be full of unknowns, and only for the experienced buyer - but should I have worried?

Join me as I take a closer look at the unit, strip it down and try to get it working again!

To my regular viewers: My channel has continued to shrink over the last couple of years despite the extra couple of hundred videos, and there are some exciting changes coming up. I have always played with a straight bat and avoided gimmics, AI, etc and presented unscripted, honest content. But today I am trialing YouTube's A/B test for descriptions and thumbnails to see if I have been right in staying away from vague, playful examples - or whether in fact, it is simply the way of the world - and something I need to do to reach a broader audience. And if people run to the comments section to criticise it, I will assume they have not been invested enough to read this explanetary description. So thank you to those who continue to support the channel - it is much appreciated.
