Who does quality radio alignment?
- Thread starter groundwire
- Start date
Will a 72-foot, 40-ton “bulldozer job” do the trick as a swap for an alignment? Turbocharged diesel, excellent gearing, and 1,800-Lbs/Ft Torque!

I could use the Bulldozer at the front gate for riot control! All my weapons are ready but the steel barrier would be helpful.
I’ll tell you my thoughts, Tallman, when it comes to outside the US I can talk to dozens of stations without touching a clarifier. I occasionally run into a bad sounding station, but it’s primarily the US where I hear off freq, gross overmodulation, echo and class C amps. The “freeband” has a way of fixing those problems: no one will respond to you. Often here the only quality that seems to count is signal strength and everyone tends to give flowers no matter how crappy the radio sounds.
Sidebanders don't do the LOUD & PROUD scene. And the echo my voice sounded so good I WANNA HEAR ME AGAIN. You are right about people not talking to them.
Airborne skunks will work just as good. Especially if you train them to chase your enemy!
It is for that very reason my services were never available to the general Public.
I used a third parties as a buffer to eliminate customers from interrupting a normally productive day to talk about their units. Any that did SLIP THROUGH were told I would need a credit card and approval for to charge $35.00 on top of the repair bill. NO free quotes or consultations, and their unit would lose it's place in the Que and would have to start all over from last place. Most would say never mind and hang up. They would ask what ever happened to customer service and I would reply that is a $35.00 question. I made my money by fast turn around and high volume.
I empathize with anyone doing any sort of a business with a front door for customers.
I tried it. Wasn’t for me. I spent more time dealing with people wanting free stuff, discounts, and people trying to peddle stuff than I did taking care of the many good PAYING customers...most of which offered little in the way of complaints.
Had two folks I’ll never forget. One wanted to pay me for servicing his chainsaws with VICODEN. The other wanted to pay for a substantial lumber order with DUCK EGGS.
When I can pay operating expenses in DUCK EGGS AND OPIATE PILLS, let me know.
Until then, piss in the wind!!
Saw this line and got uncontrollable giggles... thinking about....
I close my eyes.... only for a moment, and the urine's gone
Gol - den streams........ pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Piss in the wind
All it is is piss in the wind

Here is on of my old favorites.

My first paying job after the Navy was a Television Repair shop. Money was good because now I understood what I was doing. It got to the point where customers would bring a TV in and ask me to work on it. The other techs hated it. But you know if you get known for quality people will follow. My old telephone number still gets calls to repair TV's, dishwasher, washing machines, and dryers.Shut down since 1975 The poor unfortunate that got my old number placed an ad declaring the service was retired.
They still get calls. My advertising was "Word Of Mouth".

I do realize this is an old thread but, I highly recommend Stu at DX Radio Shop in Clyde New York. https://dxradioshopny.com
He aligned my Galaxy DX 94HP and set the low dead key to 2 watts and the high dead key to 10 watts and it forward modulates almost 120 watts when you turn the power up.
It's the best talking, most clear radio I've ever owned, period. I highly recommend Stu. And, he's a great guy to talk with as well.
Just my 2 cents worth.

I was using Matt at the radio garage but he's blown up in popularity and now it's hard to get in line. I've got a couple of radios that will needs to be sent off this winter so the search is on for a quality tech.
