Sangean ATS-803A slowly corroding away, needs another repair #2


Hi there, the second video in this little series. I managed to clean
enough corrosion from the battery terminals that haven't already
disintegrated and created a new terminal with a strip of high purity
aluminium. Not an ideal material as it will oxidise over time, but it's
very accessible to clean up and allows for the removal of the fly leads
I'd soldered directly onto the power board, and connection of the
batteries to the receiver as per the original design. Overall, this
should provide a more permanent repair. It also won't be necessary to
spend half an hour replacing the batteries! Thanks for watching!
