Yeah I was just old enough to get in on the tail end of that era,back in the late 60's on through the 70's early 80's!I find it interesting when I am @ a local estate sale etc. and see a sticker like that on the back of something!Thanks for sharing your story!

I opened a TV/VCR/Camcorder service shop while I was student teaching.I used to fix TVS all the time in college and in the late 70s and early 80s there were tons of tube sets still but I didn't see any in the late 80s and early 90s.I still kept all my tube caddys from the late 70s even tho there are very few audio tubes..I had lots of Zenith and RCA modules tho.

Thanks for the story!Did you use stickers like that as well? To me it would be kind of fun to start a book collecting stickers or Business cards from that era.
Speaking of stickers, does anyone have a McIntosh amp with a Mac clinic sticker on it?
Nah
I had two techs working for me on flat rate we just used used repair tags.
I was procuring another degree in automotive electronics and emissions because I knew I was going to teaching in the automotive field and that's all we have in Michigan.I was a single dad raising a daughter so this paid the bills nicely.
