About Me
My name is Roger Kennedy and I have over 35 years experience in servicing radios, TV's, tube testers and other related electronics equipment.
I have been in electronics since age 14, having begun repairing radios and TV's for neighbors when I was in junior high school. My father was also an electronics engineer and this is where my interest began. In my early years my parents petitioned the local school board to allow me to take adult education classes in electronics at night while still in junior high school. Again, they got the local school board to allow me to attend city college at night during my highschool years, and to work in an electronics shop after daily classes in high school. While attending college I began my first business in electronics. I started a repair business servicing radio, TV, pro-audio, and the new video tape recording systems. Seven years later I went to work for a major well known electronics manufacturer. During my 17 years with this company I continued to own and operate a small side business with the approval of my employer, repairing antique electronic equipment. When the oppurtunity came, I left the employment of this firm and once again focused full time on my own business, that of repairs of antique radios and tube testers.
I have previously held membership in the following professional organizations:
- SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers)
- IEEE (Institute of Electrical & Electronic Engineers)
- CET (Certified Electronic Technician)
