The crazy thing to do would be to reverse engineer and remake the whole =
front panel board to suit proper tact switches. At least two days work =
which probably wouldn't be worth it unless you could sell the PCBs to =
other folk.

However, it may be possible to pull the existing front panel board back =
a bit, and make and fit a daughter board that could take modern tact =
switches. I've not seen the insides of one for a couple of years though =
so there maybe not enough room to do this.

They're well worth saving.
