[chbot] BU407D needed

Thanks, Graha for your reply.

I have given the flyback a quick check and there are no shorts, of course,
that's not a particularly complete test.
I have a friend with a ring tester so I'll do that over the weekend if I
have time. That will ultimately determine whether or not it's worth
continuing at all.

For now, I'll pass on the BU407, but thank you. If the flyback is ok then
I'll order one, it will probably arrive before I have $60 worth of items to
order from Digikey.

The cap is an odd one, it's an axial 6v 75uf. Here is an adequate
replacement, they still make them:

I could replace it with a couple of radial caps but I would rather just
spend the $9 and have a drop-in replacement.
