I have a couple of Weston IVs and both work although there is almost
a stop of difference between them now. Yes indeed they are repairable
but it may not be worth the cost. There is an outfit in California
that can do it that I know of and I will try and find their address a
bit later and post it unless someone else has it readily. As well
there is a company in the UK, < http://www.megatron.co.uk/ > that
sells the selenium cells and can also do repairs.
