How hard is it to replace? Soldering involved?

>Replacing this item can be tricky because it is in a very tight space where it is mounted.

Yes, soldering is required. And the receiver mounts in the area of a stacked daughterboard, which complicates life. If you are good at soldering, go for it. If not, then you may destroy the displayboard.
Where are you located? Canada?

Yeah, that kinda narrows it down a little. Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
