How To Replace Aeroflex IFR Front Panel Overlay and Buttons for FM/AM-1600S IFR-1600 TS-4317

Seller on ebay has replacement front panel overlays and buttons for the IFR 1600 / 1600S / TS-4317 Series of Service Monitors. Both can be purchased for around $60 USD. Replacing your worn discolored buttons and face plates can significantly increase the value of your unit and just make it look better in general. I had to replace mine because one button wasn't functional when I received my unit.

Your video brought back memories of when I worked as a bench technician and used IFR 1200, 1200-S and a IFR 1500. but that was many years ago! Thanks for the video.

I just watched your video on repairing the Hafler DH-110 muting circuit. I have one that I pulled out of long term storage and find that the only audio I can hear is out of the headphone jack.. Do you do repair work on these for others? Thanks for the videos.

There is nothing worse than when a seller doesn't package the item correctly. If that unit cost several hundred dollars I would package it with some expanding foam bags, if the seller really is reputable he will change his ways and not skimp on the shipping supplies.
