At that price new, I'm susprised that people bothered to get them fixed even back then, if the LOPTfmr and transistor, frame chip and other ICs were u/s, surely would make for BER - best part of 40 notes for the transformer repair alone, plus bench time...
We got a remote Alba 14¨set circa 1987 for about 200 notes, first time I had seen a 'monitor style' case. That still worked last time used, still have it in a dark corner of mum´s garage. Doubt much money would have been spent on it had it had loptfmr failure back then though...
