I repair and install radios and other avionics in aircraft. The planes I work on are mostly single engine aircraft like Piper and Cessna models. I also do some helicopter radio repair. I am also a mechanic and do some general maintenance but mostly I do the electrical part.
I run the radio shop (sounds good but mostly it is me and maybe one other person) but I don't own the business. There are also 4 or 5 mechanics for aircraft maintenance. My boss tolerates the guitar amplifiers.
The business is only open during the days and is on a airport so I have the ability to turn the amps up if I want during the night. The main hanger is about 125 by 150 feet so I have a little room to do things (when it is not too filed up with aircraft).
When I was about 16 years old, I worked for a couple of years in a music store's repair shop and repaired amplifiers and other electronic music equipment so I like to do a little of that on the side.
The Sunn amp was thrown away by it's previous owner and looked pretty sad when i got it. It took a little work to get it going again but now it works good.
I have some other amps that I have collected, like a Kustom 200, the old black tuck-and-roll origional amp and a Gibson guitar amp from 1942.
