[labnetwork] Veeco Dektak Guru?

[Mac Hathaway]

Hey there,

Thanks to all for the helpful contacts and suggestions on how to get our 
balky Dektak back in shape.  I'll post a followup summary when we get it 
sorted out, in case others can benefit from it.

We're looking for an after-market Dektak guru who'd be willing to consult with us, or perhaps come to our site to give the unit a good going-over.  Does anyone know of a good free-lance tech who might be interested in helping us out?  The brand is now owned by Bruker, who are reluctant to help out very much, given the unit's vintage.
