Icom ID-880H worth fixing

Icom ID-880H worth fixing?
Need some advice please....

I recently purchased a used ID-880H that has problems on UHF. Low power output is 0w watts, medium is about 12w and high is 35w. The radio has also powered down on me twice now for no apparent reason, one time was after a 2-3 minute transmission using mid power on VHF and the other time it was just scanning. At least on VHF RF power output looks just fine.

It doesn't seem that it's worth sending it back to Icom for them to repair @ $92/hr + parts. Should I just run the thing till the rest of the output transistors come apart and/or try my hand at repairing myself? Anyone have similar experiences with this radio?
