Double Bass Acoustic Image repair?

I'm feeling a bit shocked to find that Acoustic Image is no more. I had three different series of the Coda amps and also a Focus at different times and was always so impressed with the way they managed to shoehorn that 10" into the bottom of them.
 
I emailed and Rick's son, Chris, emailed back with some suggestions -- deoxit on the jack and the Filter on/off switch (had to open it to get at the switch contacts), and it seems to have done the trick.
Acoustic Image will be missed, a real class act.
I can’t count the number of times I’ve cleaned the effects send and return jacks with DeOxit on various amplifiers (GK 200MB, Roland Cube Bass, Walter Woods MI-100-8 et.al.) It fixed noises or lack thereof in every case.
