The Monterey switches on my K108 sound and feel amazing. Trouble is, half of them chatter or don't register reliably, so unless I attempt to desolder them all and swap the working switches from unused to useful keys, it's acting as quite an expensive fidget toy. However, I'd need to practise soldering a bit before I tried this - I don't want to damage it more. In the meantime, does anyone have a Monterey switch board for sale, ideally this same model (the plastic case and mounting plate give the switches a much deeper sound than, for instance, my studier white Alps board with more metal in it) but really anything with Montereys.
Thanks.
[WTB] SMK/Monterey switch board, e.g. K108

I'd be happy to sell you my disassembled Chicony 5181, but I'm in the US, so that's about $70 just for shipping to the UK. The above ad is also in the US, but shipping is listed as $22 to the UK, minus import fees.
