RE: Repairing damaged trace on circuit board

Without photos it is difficult to advise, but in general it should be easy to repair. First I would cut off any tracks that are hanging off the board. Determine which components the track connected and replace the track with a piece of 22 gauge wire. For instance if the track goes between one leg of the capacitor to a resistor or tube pin, simply loop the wire around the capacitor lead and solder; then loop around the resistor and solder. Whether you leave the insulation on the piece of wire or not depends on the application.
