I can just hear the collector bastards muttering "how dare he scrap a Polaris, they're so precious." ....just ignore them. Too damn many "precious classics" of the 70s and 80s were cheaply and shoddily made and are now turning into rubbish, yet people continue to obsess (and pay too much $ for them). Membrane keypads were a bad idea no matter what they were attached to. (Don't ask me about the Pro-One or the Polysix. Certain readers won't like what I have to say. Already posted my feelings about the ARP Quadra.) Great, good to hear you reused a chip from a dead Polaris.
