Title: Tait handheld repair
Post by: GeneAker on April 04, 2015, 02:42:04 PM
Can anyone recommend a repair shop for Tait radios? I have an otherwise still serviceable Orca handheld that I purchased from the Supply Depot way back when, and now so many of the pixels in the LCD display have failed to such an extent that it's impossible to read.

I can do some digging and possibly find some companies for you, however the bigger question is are you using this radio for CAP use, and if so, when was it originally put into CAP service? If it was after January 2006 then it is no longer CAP-compliant, hasn't been for awhile.

it's like a simple quick fix, just need to get it done

Pretty sure he's good to go as far as compliance is concerned.  The supply Depot went toes up well before that 2006 deadline.
