 Subject: [xl7] Buttons Starting to Not Work. Advice on Servicing??
   
    My Beloved XL-7 has been with me for 10+ years now. Unfortunately I have a few buttons for the "Cursor"  that are getting a bit wonky and as of last night one of my track buttons is really starting to fall apart. 
Any suggestions on ways to repair these? Are the contacts something easy to replace on the boards? Are most people just finding another Command Station to use as spare parts?   #yiv6009773122 #yiv6009773122 -- #yiv6009773122ygrp-mkp {border:1px solid #d8d8d8;font-family:Arial;margin:10px
