There mission was to get more watching people them. They gave us all
NICE jackets & caps, pens, alignment tools & other doo dads.
Spent a few hours talking improving repairs. Be sure RF & IF were up to
snuff, traps adjusted & the FM break offs on the Jerrold antennas we sold
were used. Also be sure the fine tune was set to get it. I can say it
did work, most customers didnt even know there was a ch6. They appreciated
getting a "new" channel.
