Then, there's the chance the old transducer is as worn out as its
electronics. They don't last forever, either.

Well now Larry, just what part of the Barium Titanate Crystal in
those transducers "WEARS OUT"? It either works or it doesn't, but
it isn't a "WEAR Item". Barium Titanate Crystals do not degrade over
time or use. They can fracture, but that happens only if overloaded,
or overpowered.
