Default RE: Did I kill my futaba FP-T8VAP


ORIGINAL: dirtybird

I doubt any service department makes money for the company.
I am glad that Scota4570 with good directions from a kind helper found and replaced the fuse.

As application enineer with RCA (Radio Corporation of America) I used to run seminars training service technicians.

Some dealers made more money with service than with selling new electronics.
Due to competition their selling mark up was very low.

It does not take much knowledge to sell new stuff on the floor and saleamen had low wages and a small commission.
.
The technicians needed the technical dexterity, were well paid and repair charges were beneficial to the owners.

Happy New Year.
