1 JULY 2008
We are continuing our efforts at updating the existing base of Expert 1K-FA amplifiers sold in the U.S. and Canada in 2007. Because of this added workload, we are unable to accept new repairs of Amateur Radio equipment until after July 31, 2008. Expert 1K-FA sales, service and warranty repairs will continue to be available. We apologize for any inconvenience.

BIG NEWS! We now represent linear amplifier manufacture Societa per l'Elettronica S.r.l. (SPE) and their excellent Expert 1K-FA no-tune, solid state amplifier. The Expert 1K-FA is an excellent product with very good reviews all around in the ham community. We are excited to have been chosen for this great honor, and expect to give existing and new SPE amplifier owners an exemplary sales and service experience.

FLASH: TS-850 OWNERS, READ:

We will be revising our "full Monte" deal for the TS-850S to include replacement of ALL of the electrolytic SMD caps on the CAR unit (there are a total of 11 to be concerned with). Leakage from these caps have been a known issue with the 850s and we are going to REQUIRE the replacement of these if they have not already been done (just advise us if they have when you send in your rig). 

 

 

11/13/2007 (STICKY) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pay attention to the shipping hints that we present on our SHIPPING page. We are seeing damage to the front panel controls on some rigs shipped in for repairs; THESE PARTS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE! If we can't scrounge them from the Internet or from a "parts" radio, they cannot be repaired and that pretty much is it for that radio. Rigs must have a MINIMUM of 3" of tightly-wrapped LARGE bubble wrap over the front panel, or 2" plus 3-5" of loose fill between the rig and the sides of the box. Even contact with the original hard foam inserts can destroy these controls! See our shipping page here.

 

6/29/2007 (STICKY) NOTICE TO RETURNING CUSTOMERS:  If your records still reflect our old comcast.net email, please change your records to reflect our gmail.com email address; or simply contact us here.

 

Shipping hints: please review here before sending your radio to us.   

 

OUR FLAT RATE "FULL MONTE" REPAIR DEALS ARE VERY POPULAR, IT SEEMS! THEY ARE AVAILABLE FOR SOME RIGS! CHECK IT OUT HERE.

 

General Information

PARTS: While most manufactures are pretty good about parts, some manufacturers, and a few parts in particular can be quite slow to deliver. While we try to stock the most commonly-used parts, it's not possible to keep a warehouse of everything here. Often we have to "second source" things to keep the older rigs running. Bear with us.

 

COMMUNICATIONS: Good communications is the key to good customer relations and satisfaction! Please click COMMUNICATIONS  for helpful hints.

 

 

ABOUT B&B TECHNICAL SERVICES:  Click  ABOUT for our contact information, email address and more.

 

LABOR RATES, SHIPPING COSTS: These have increased for us as they have for everyone. We try to keep our labor and shipping in line but must cover our costs. We use the least expensive shipping method (usually Fedex ground) unless otherwise requested by our customers. Click SHIPPING for details and shipping hints that will help your rig arrive intact.

 

PAYMENT FOR SERVICES: We accept personal checks (must clear prior to return shipment), money orders and bank cheques. We also can take all major bank and debit cards through PAYPAL; you do not have to be a member to use Paypal for our services. Please see RATES & PAYMENT.

 

 

PARTNERSHIPS: We recommend Ham Radio Outlet for new equipment purchases. Our local store in Denver has provided great service over the years and John, Jay, Russ and Mike have been awesome! Contact these guys (or your closest store) for your Ham Radio Equipment needs. Tell them that Bill K0ZL sent you. Their telephone numbers in Colorado:
