John,

There's nothing wrong with a little 'prying' now and then, although I must admit that when I try any prying it usually results in some breaking as well.

Good job John.

You were lucky that it was only a carbon score problem.

You usually lose the input channel on the scope unless there is some protection circuitry built into the design.

Nice repair job John!

I never get that adventurous with my broken gear. I usually grumble a bit and then buy a new one. It is good to see someone do the right thing and fix/repair the problem. Well done! Good luck on the scope.
