	Assuming the board is broken and no other damage is done: Note: runs can be on both sides of the board, and multi-layer boards have runs inside the board The proper way is to drill a new hole, install and solder a new run, and insert and solder a new post and finally solder the wire to the post. An easier fix, is to: Follow the copper run to the next connection point (probably the input to a transformer) and solder the wire there. Do you have you any experience or training in soldering electronic devices? __________________ Perfection is a subjective and abstract concept.

	Roll it into the center of a large (1 kg should suffice) ball of high solids epoxy. When fully cured, roll it down the face of Hoover Dam. After the quite satisfying "Splooosh!", go to Wal-Mart and purchase a replacement. Weekend fulfilled!
