Perhaps I need to advertise a bit. I always thought this area to be
devoid of any vintage radio activity. The lack of any sort of hamfests
around Salt Lake makes me really appreciate my annual pilgrimage to Dayton.

Jim Bailey was the fellow in SLC and he was quite active on rar+p for a
while. He seemed to get an ample amount of work and I think he did some
local selling.

Yeah, get the word out on corkboards at the supermarkets and the free
trader papers. No doubt you'll drum up some activity.

Haven't heard from Jim for a few years. He moved away and dropped out
of sight. Maybe KenG would have an address for him?

I knew Jim, and purchased several radios from him. He moved to
Rochester, NY, I believe. I haven't heard from him in well over a year
now. Last time I checked with Ken, he had not heard from Jim either.

I may just have to do that! Thanks!

Tried TV Specialists? I worked there in the 70's, wasn't a bad place to
work. They do a lot of warranty stuff.

I never specialized in TVs. Too large to 'collect'. Now with
everything LCD and plasma with digital broadcast, I'd have to
completely relearn the signal flow.

I looked up TV Specialists, however. They've been in business a LONG time!

Fortunately, I have always managed to save a bit of my salary to avoid
any dependence on assistance programs. Tapping into that savings now
just moves any retire date further off into the future.

Joe,
Advertise on Craigslist, I advertise I restore Dynaco and other tube
amps and I do get repair jobs!
