Born in the UK in 1946 and did a TV techs apprenticeship starting in 1958, so I grew up on valves equipment, even valve colour TV's.
I've been in the electronics servicing industry since then, in NZ from '77 to '96 and then in Sydney.
Currently I'm a tech working for the No 1 Samsung service centre located in Roseville.
If anyone needs any help with especially valve amps, please get in touch.

My amp repair business, Stockport Sound, is in the Clare and Gilbert Valleys, South Australia (that's about 120 kms due north of Adelaide).
I am endorsed for warranty work by Ashton and Laney, but do repairs and mods to every kind of valve amp ever made, and even fix the odd sand amp (silicon transistor).
I do amp repairs for most of the music shops north of Adelaide.
I learned my electronics skills with the RAAF in the late 60's early 70's when valves were not an alternative, they were the only way to go.
I have a Goldentone ReverbMaster and a 60 watt Strauss, still enjoy playing bass in a number of local bands and even do solo shows on guitar with a MIDI machine.
