A Must Have!
|
Time owned: 0 to 3 months

After trying to squint and look at the small print on the original owner's manual for my B Line I came across Garey's CD's for the Drake radios!
I can only say I wish I had these a long time ago! The pictures, labeling of individual components, and very organized approach to the B Line Service CD is top notch!
I can find a component quickly, and know what the value is supposed to be with ease now. Also there are several test points for voltage readings that were not in my Owner's manual that are in this service manual.. It takes all the guess work out of what should be what when you are troubleshooting.
If you want to maintain your Drake equipment I consider these CD's that Garey has put together a vital item.
I am not that good at troubleshooting my Drake equipment yet but the information contained is greatly helping.
As a side note - I have contacted Garey several times after purchasing his CD's regarding problems I was having with my R4B and Garey is patient and informative.
Again.. an excellent product that every Drake collector, operator, and "wanna be technician" like me has just got to have!

I can now locate any components of my drake in few seconds. This is a unique product. Yet, it is fairly priced.
Thanks Garey for the great work!

Great Service Aid!

Just received a set of these from Garey, and I'm impressed. Besides the "Service" Manuals, he also includes the Operating Manuals, and a ton of other information that can be hard to find.
I just started restoring a set of Drake B-Line Twins, and these are going to be invaluable to me.
Well done, Garey!
