No offense intended, as I respect the opinions of several of the people who
have replied...

but what in the world did all of you do before the LV2000 existed? I think
Brian's desire to not go that route is a legitimate and valid one. LV2000's
certainly are not a necessity for a reliable WG 6100. Surely there are some
folks who are willing to offer their experiences with repairing the original
LV section. Fortunately, all of mine (so far) have been fairly easy fixes,
so I'm not of much help on it.

Here's hoping some people will step forward with the kind of info we used to
see here in regards to keeping these monitors going.
