Um, there are no TV shops in a 5 mile radios, only one I know of is Saber TV in Fall River. FWIK none from there to Provincetown. I think there are at least two maybe three shops in the Boston, metro-west area. One at least specializes in antique radio repair.

Massachusetts discontinued licensing of Radio/TV technicians at least 8 years ago. I don't know if the ETG Electronics Technicians Guild is still functional in MA. They were prominent in protecting the business of Radio TV technicians and were the lobby that got the licensing passed in 1964 or so. I just missed being grandfathered got tested anyway. Waste of money the hacks were still out there. They caught only a few over the years to make a show for the State House Icon_rolleyes

YMMV
