No Brakes!..... Most likely Booster?

Hi,
I have a '88 900TC 5-spd with 173k on it.
I think it is the original brake master cylinder and booster.
I was driving along with my daughter and all of a sudden my brakes were 1/2 as strong.
Then it kept dropping to almost no brakes. I have a sport muffler so it is a little loud but I did not seem to hear hissing.
The brake fluid level is fine. No leaks in engine bay.
My first Saab was an '86 900S and it had the same symptoms which turned out to be the booster.
How can I tell?
Thanks,
Peter
