Do you have a schematic for it? That makes all the difference.

What is a Tetra radio? I've heard of Terra, but never Tetra.

Thanks, Bob K.

Yes, Texas State Technical College in Waco Tx. is the current certificate holder for Terra. They have a flat rate repair cost that is very reasonable, and you can get AOG rush status if you need it in a hurry. 90 day warranty, they are quite good. I like the fact that the repair fees help support the college and its programs. A neat approach to education.

Well .....you could......

Recruit interns, offer to pay room and board (rent a big ole house)
and teach them composite construction in turn for their work.

There are not many ways that a person can become skilled at composite
sailplane construction in the states.

That's what I've been doing. It turns out that not as many folks as
you might think consider that a good deal.

Thanks, Bob K.

FWIW, TETRA is the acronym for TErrestrial Trunked RAdio .... a product of a Motorola company. It's a Digital Radio System that is used for airport communications .... I believe initially used at a Hong Kong airport.
