Vintage Futaba repair service
 
Hello everyone,

I’m searching for a business where I can get some of my vintage Futaba and JR TX/RX sets serviced , repaired .

I've tried contacting radio south with no luck so far .

I would appreciate your help please .

AFAIK, no one is going to try and work on your radios, there have not been any replacement parts for those radios available for quite a few years........

The gentleman at Radio South has the parts , he wrote on his website he’s slowing down now .
As I wrote , I’ve tried contacting him , wish there was someone to pic up his service .

thx anyway

Tony is your only bet, if he answered you that's a good sign. However, be aware that he now works full time for AMA and only does radio stuff in his after hours. IF he says he can help you, best pursue than option as I do not think any others are available. Good luck....

He used to be the key service man for JR in the UK and also does work on all other makes.
