Part 4. Repair audio + update PTT system. Yes, this repair keeps evolving. Pretty much every Ham radio piece that I repair always needs more than expected. After all is done, I would expect to make $5.00 per hour. I've been into this one close to 2 weeks and still have much to do. I know several other guys in the business, they tell me the same thing. Its a labor of love, plus the challenge of keeping that 60+ year old equipment on the air. So, if your thinking of doing this for a living, think again. My days of working on the heavy transmitters is over. No more Johnson 500's, Rack mount monsters. However, I will still work on Johnson Viking II's, Rangers, Valiants and other tube Ham gear. If you have one sitting in the closet and want to get it back on the air, contact me. See: d-labelectronics.com or / dlab_electronics I also have a D-lab facebook page. I will do my best to assist you with your repair, or get it to my shop. I always give prompt estimates and updates. Hope you enjoyed this Viking series!
