Excellent Service - Highly Recommended! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
John repaired my Yaesu FT-1000MP Mark V that took a direct lightning strike via the CAT port and it works as good as new! It had extensive damage,foil traces lifted off the audio board,17 small electrolytic capacitors, 4 Integrated circuits,a relay, several diodes,numerous resistors, and both of the BLF-147 field effect transistor finals all blown and he fixed it all and at a reasonable price too! I'm just tickled to death with it! John is my technician from here on out as long as he's repairing radios! He also kept in touch with me throughout the entire repair process via email or telephone and the radio was returned to me as clean as a pin and in mint condition with no scratches or any cosmetic damages! I highly recommend John to anyone!

My 990's back! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
What John did was virtually send me back a new
radio. Power supply was stone dead and now is like new. Couldn't be more impressed.

The Man Time Owned: more than 12 months.
On the recommendation of a friend, I sent my TS 940 off to John for repair. He overhauled the whole rig! The price was VERY resonable! Don't ever hesitate to go to John if your beloved rig needs help! Very satisfied customer!

Fixed an lightening struck FT 950 Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
What can I say the, my FT 950 took a hit and was dead!!! I sent an email about services, a quick response was recieved, I sent it in knowing there were a few rigs on the bench ahead of me.
in less than a month I had my rig back and its working like new, very good rates, prompt service and response. I recommend LPC to all my HAM buddies. Very satisfied with service!!!!

Excellent Service Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
John worked on a Kenwood TS-850S that was destroyed by a power surge due to lightning. After many parts and lots of work he sent me back the radio in superb condition. Never has this radio looked or worked like it did when I got it back! Super clean! Unfortunately, about two weeks after I got it back I lost transmit audio. Things like this are expected because other components can weaken and go bad after taking such a major power spike. Well, I emailed John to see if he had any suggestions to get the rig back on the air. Instead, what he did next showed me that he really cares about his business and customer service. He had me ship it back to him on his dime! He found a bad DDS chip (which was his last one) and once again sent the radio back to me. With Service and excellent work like this, John will never need to advertise. Everyone who has used him will gladly do it for him. Yes, he is that good of a tech and a great guy. Good Luck!

Great Kenwood service Time Owned: more than 12 months.
John (KI4NR)brought my Kenwood TS-850 back to life. After putting up with way too many problems and issues (grinding tuner, low output, among others), I was finally ready to get the rig repaired. At the suggestion of another ham friend, I drove it to John's shop (within driving distance for those in central Florida), and left it for him to "do his thing". Upon return of the rig, with everything operating "as new" (John's modus is to bring everything he works on "back to working like new"), I feel like a kid in a candy store. I wouldn't take ANY rig anywhere else...quick turnaround, acceptable cost. Thanks, John !!!

Fix my TS-850S when Kenwood Longbeach couldn't. Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Pretty much rebuilt the TS-850S including many electrolytics and the squeeling antenna tuner after Kenwood Repair Center in Longbeach, CA gave up and said it was un-repairable. Works like brand new. Fast turn around too and very easy on the wallet. If your Kenwood needs work, he's the man to see.

Outstanding. Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I sent John (KI4NR - LPC Wireless) my AEA MM3 Morse Machine
for repair. It was tripping the side tone as soon as it was connected.

The unit was working fine otherwise, but it would keep the rig's
side tone going (without transmitting) even though I wasn't keying.

John had it fixed and back at my door within three days!

Absolutely amazing. His work is great, quick, and reasonable.

I highly recommend him for any repair to electronics.
