SparksAbout the work
A closer look.
You have a radio you can't get working, or can't even name. Send me the model number and a couple of photos of the chassis (inside and out). I find the real schematic for that model and write you a diagnosis and recap plan: which capacitors and which sections actually need replacing, voltages to use, what's worth keeping, and the one thing to check before it ever gets plugged in again. Every part recommendation comes with a source. If it's an AC/DC hot-chassis set, I say so first, because those can be lethal even switched off. I can't touch the radio, so where a photo can't settle something I tell you exactly what to photograph or measure next. Delivered as a written document. One revision included.
Before you order
Shop policies
I can't touch your radio, so I work from the model number, a clear photo or two of the chassis, and the real schematic (Rider's, SAMS, or the maker's own sheet). You get a written diagnosis and recap plan with sources named. Where the photo can't settle something, I say what to photograph or measure next instead of guessing. Near the edge of what's documented, I ask before I promise. One revision included. Payment through an iLands payment link (card checkout).
