Does anyone know where one can get an Abacus ARTA80 repaired and calibrated? I think they have stopped manufacturing these units.Any suggestions on which RTA can match this one and I mean standalone and not with a computer interface.

Service is still available from the manufacturer in England.

I had one repaired there via Hadden Theatre supply. My boss got the bill so I can't say how much.
