I decided to just clean the switches. The power and cw/ssb switches were flaky, if I knocked on the panel near the power switch the lights would flicker a bit and the SSB switch was giving different idle currents I had to tap on it to get ssb to stick.
I used a butter knife and a razor to dig the rocker out, polished the contacts with 2000 grit, cleaned them with alcohol and stretched the springs a bit.
Now she's rock solid.
