Yes, we are fortunate not to have to make a living as tube jockeys. I was privileged to know many "old-timers" who did it for a living, and some were really talented and learned technicians, but many were tube jockeys, and winged it. The really good shops gained excellent reputations, as word of mouth spread, but still others did well because they were undercutting the "good guys".
I'm happy just to have a few hours a week to devote to vintage video and radio. If I ever retire, ha-ha, I have a bleep-load of projects just waiting to be attempted.
