Yes, broadcast is one of the few places where real electronic repair is still carried out, especially on transmitters. Most of the studio stuff is computers/IT work now except for the microphone though!
I am not in that business anymore but I can remember when tube type equipment was still used in the studios and there was tons of maintenance work that would need to be done in the studios such as cleaning cart machines and reel to reel machines, repairing tube type audio equipment etc. that just isn't around anymore.
A lot of the new transmitters especially AM are solid state now though there are many tube type units still operating.
