I have yet to make it to one of these famed clinics, although I've been
trying to for years! I have a ton of old radios, mostly 20's that need
repair. I am not interested in getting a njarc member to fix my radio (feed
me a fish), I am interested in learning how to repair radios (learn to
fish).
My only comment about this is, would it be possible for some members who own
camcorders to video tape a few of the repairs during each clinic? We can see
some interesting sets, hear the comments from the owner, hear the diagnosis
and perhaps even see some repair techniques. The club could compile these
onto a DVD or even a set of DVDs for a) posterity, b) me I could learn a lot
without attending every session) and c) could be a good source of revenue
for the club. I'd pay $100 for a decent set of DVDs (perhaps a few years
worth of radio repair clinics). The beauty is the club could resell the same
stuff over and over and really leverage the effort that went into repairing
the radio in the first place.
Surely it wouldnt look all that highly polished but it sure could be useful.
