This is going to be fun. This SX-43 is recapped and works, but the reception switch is mechanically shot. I’ve cleaned it. If I wiggle it just right it I get audio.

I’ve sourced a replacement switch but it will be a task to rewire it. I’m taking lots of pictures, plan to label each wire. I’m hoping I can just leave the switch in place and rewire each terminal one by one. Unwiring the entire switch first seems a recipe for disaster.
