It's sad we've become a throw away society Martin. I'm lucky in that I can and do fix a lot of stuff, I have a particular passion for old junk.
I'm also lucky my son has great eyesight and patience and he'll analyze and trace a circuit out and draw it complete in some software he has. I grew up studying electronics and a lot of years study, my son grew up watching me play with junk and with Google at hand, he designs and builds more stuff than I ever bothered doing outside of industry.


As mentioned, if I had a spare board I'd shove it straight in the post.
A suggestion I don't know of whether it would work but Aliexpress have all sorts of electronics boards but you'd have to purchase it were they to have one, no different than getting Tasco to get you one in. Though I was shocked by Tasco when I needed replacement worm gears for my GOTO mount, when David (I think) told me the price for the lot I asked him if he meant each, pleasantly surprised.
