[sudo-discuss] Does the sudoroom still have occasional events to fix electronics?

[Ed Biow]

I didn't see one on the calendar, but seem to recall seeing something 
like that in the past.

A few months ago I laid out $180 to but something called a Ion 
Blockrocker Bluetooth to have a portable amplifier/speaker/microphone 
thingie for events.  It was more or less adequate, but shortly after I 
got it the 3.5mm IN jack became unseated and now it doesn't make an 
adequate connection.  I can still access the device by bluetooth, but 
not every device has bluetooth and bluetooth can be a bit finicky during 
an event, as we found out at the Anti-DAC event last Tuesday..  It looks 
like it has screws so disassembling it would probably be easy, but I 
have about as much dexterity in my fingers as most folks have in their 
toes and am not sure I would be able to figure out how to re-seat the 
little audio-in aperture.  I guess I could RMA the thing, but it is big, 
it would probably cost me $40 to send it back.

Anyway, if anyone feels like having a crack at it, I'd be happy to 
schlep it to the room.
