THE VINTAGE RADIO REPAIR  SHOP

Correct to July 8th  2025

All dates subject to change!

Please note that the current radio seen on the webcam might not be the one at the top of this list!  I manage to get one or two completed per month as I am also busy with being a husband, granddad and ‘being retired’. I also struggle with arthritis which basically means I’m ‘one handed’ literally!

Quality takes time and it can’t be rushed. Every radio has its own challenges. I love what I do and I love doing these radios to preserve them for the future and make my customers happy! The work can’t be rushed……

Thanks for your patience.    Dave

How is the list formulated?  

Basically the list is added to as I receive your Deposit for the work to be done and then entries are BLUED OUT  when they are completed. If I have lost contact with you OR you have missed your slot, entries are in RED.

NB  Sadly, If you miss your slot you go to the back of the queue. Your DEPOSIT may NOT be returned if you miss your slot as that represents me losing income for that job that month and I have to cover my losses/expenses at that time.  I will email you as a reminder prior to your Slot

NB If your name isn’t here then there has been a problem/I’ve missed you!

Please contact me if so..     A couple of Orders have customers who have not responded to emails/messages PLEASE GET IN TOUCH!   

 

SCROLL DOWN THE LIST TO FIND YOUR JOB!

IF YOUR NAME ISN’T HERE AND YOU THINK IT SHOULD BE????        GET IN TOUCH!!!
