Re: [Drakelist] Drakelist Drake Service?
I've used John Kriner and Ron. Both did an excellant job (John went over a T4B/R4B, Ron went over my TR7).

[Drakelist] Drake Service
Hello to the group. John Kriner sent me an e-mail advising that the R. L. Drake Co. has discontinued repair service of the PRN-1000, the SW-1, the SW-2, and the SW-8 receivers. I didn't check, but I assume this information is also on their web-site. 73, Bill___ Drakelist mailing list Drakelist@zerobeat.net http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist
[drakelist] Drake Service Recommendation
Richard Bell [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- I have just received my T-4XB and R-4B back from a brief visit with John Kriner for some maintenance and alignment. Can't say enough good stuff about his work. Too bad I don't possess the same skills (bet he can't fix computers like I can, and I know how to do real fancy stuff too - take THAT!). He really deserves the name, The Man Electronics.
