Signs of life! The reloaded board actually booted on the first try:
At first I was only getting audio out of the headphone jack. After replacing the op-amp at UA9, I got a strong chime from the speaker. Now to populate the rest of the board and run some diagnostics...

Reloaded board completed and fully-operational...all Snooper tests passed! I already love this thing...
From battery-bomb victim to a new lease on life. But...what's better than an SE/30? An SE/40!
I guess it's a total Bolle-box now
Also, I only had to pull the customs from one of the two bombed boards, so I'll attempt to build a second reloaded board and resurrect the other SE/30 from this lot. But, I've accomplished my original goal with this lot, so getting both SE/30's working would just be cake icing. I never could have done something like this a year ago. All of you who answer my dumb questions on Discord, create youtube content, and make the projects and products that help keep these machines going are amazing.
