My activity is focused on TUBE TESTERS!  I sell, repair, calibrate and upgrade all makes and models of tube testers.                  I specalize on Military, Hickok, Triplett, B&K, and all Labratory models!

I have over 35 years experience in servicing radios, TV's, tube testers and other related electronics equipment. I have been in electronics since age 14, having begun repairing radios and TV's for neighbors when I was in junior high school. My father was also an electronics engineer and this is where my interest began. In my early years my parents petitioned the local school board to allow me to take adult education classes in electronics at night while still in junior high school. Again, my parents got the local school board to allow me to attend city college at night during my highschool years, and to work in an electronic repair shop after daily classes in high school. While attending college I began my first business in electronics. I started a repair business servicing radio, TV, pro-audio, and the new video tape recording systems. Seven years later I went to work for a major well known electronics manufacturer. During my 17 years with this company I continued to own and operate a small side business with the approval of my employer, repairing vintage electronic equipment and tube testers. When the opportunity came, I left the employment of this firm and once again focused full time on my own business, that of repairs and upgrades of tube testers.

My work area is customized to be highly productive! I have a special computer program and wide screen monitor right above my bench to aid in all service work. Schematics, calibration instructions, block diagrams, and other key technical information is quickly available! I have all the needed equipment at hand to do a high quality job. I rely heavily on specialized tools, test fixtures and high end top of the line professional quallity test equipment to insure accuracy and the quality of the work performed. By having 99% of all key tools and equipment at hand its easy to do all the required tests and in a timely manner!

I have had specialized stands made to hold all makes and models of testers to protect them so critical parts wont be damaged accidently by just propping them up, or setting them down on there sides, or on there component parts. In addition this fixture rotates in a full 360 degree circle to allow for complete access to all circuits for inspection and easy repair. Special jigs, tools and equipment were designed and built to test all operations and parts of any tube tester. Detailed procedures and check out work sheets are used to ensure all tests and measurements are performed on all services, upgrades, and items made and sold by me!

I provide a 180 day limited warranty on all work I perform including calibration.
