I fixed one for a friend of mine. He said most of the lights didn't work. I opened it up and found that a bunch of the LEDs in the front panel were never even wired up.

It looked like a big steel box but it was actually a thin sheet of aluminum over a particle board box and inside it was a tiny circuit board and nothing else.

I did a bit of digging and came up with an internal view of a SOSL radio. And it’s worse than I imagined. Not this exact model, but representative of the build quality of these products.
