Where can I send my DOD EQ pedal for repair?

definitely worth learning the basics of electronics and the solder iron. repairing input/output jacks is a great place to start (if not on-board/surface mount)

But for those who prefer delegating, start contacting pedal makers, YouTube reviewers, or shops that sell pedals, all may have 'someone' they could reference for you. Keyboard/Electronic repair shops also fit this task—Armen's in NYC is a place alot of guys use

In Electronics class the radio I put together failed to work. I would not hire an amateur to do this job so I would not do it myself. The input output is scratchy all I get is bad signal when I plug it in. Has a fresh battery. My local music store says they can and do fix them. The only electronics repair shops in my area deal with computers.

As mentioned call shops that sell pedals. If they don't fix them they will likely know someone that does.
Often large manufacturers will have authorized repair facilities that work independently of their distributors. Sometimes these are small one tech operations that will take odd ball and out of warranty work.
Most manufacturer's websites will list their service centres.
I'd start with Roland. They sell a lot of pedals.
