Is it possible to mill out a bit of a groove in the broken area , to

Good idea. However, I wouldn't do it just in the damaged area. With
a thicker piece of PCB material, one could mill concentric slots
(probably on a lathe or drill press). A copper or brass strip could
be inserted in the slot and glued in place. Bending the rectangular
strip would only work for a mounting it on edge, which might be a
problem making contact with the Pogo contacts. Flat would be better,
but that would require machining the circular contacts.


Worth having a go on some fresh pcb and copper. I forgot to say
previously, assuming joining old and new co[per, scarfe the joins together.
