If you can get hold of a service manual and borrow a test pattern generator

Well, that's out of my comfort zone/area of expertise, but if I am
understanding you correctly, you concur with the previous poster in
that this seems like a fairly trivial repair and shouldn't cost too
much?

Once again, I would rather not have to toss this thing out if a fairly
simple (and cheap) repair can take care of it.

Thanks,
