"Surprise Repair" by Steve Adams

"Surprise Repair" by Steve AdamsA few weeks ago, I received a call from a longtime friend. He knows I am an engineer, and he had an old radio that had stopped working. It wasn't just any radio; it was a meticulously designed, high-end piece of equipment that had been silent for years. In the 1980's and 1990's people around the world paid $1,400 for each unit!His plan was to order a new amplifier and replace the original board, but I cautioned him about the challenge of matching custom speakers of a vintage design. Within a few hours, I had identified a suitable replacement, and we got together in his shop to install it. The moment we fired up the radio, it produced sound again, the air in the room seemed to change.On the way home, I reflected some. Helping him restore that radio combined 40 years of engineering experience into a deeply rewarding afternoon. We all have skills that, when used to serve others, pay off in surprising ways. A few days later, your host, George Caylor, excitedly called to tell me how amazing his Bose Acoustic Wave System sounded.Support the show#Political/Conservative/Judeo/Christian/Constitutional
