The Repair Shop does electronics, sort of

A bit of a flat TV experience, not atypical as repairs go ... the Mad Professor's electronics gear is fixed by the Shop's resident electronics guru , with the aid of his mate.

An unusual piece of music tech - plenty of head scratching , no observable TEA  :palm:

No TEA is not really a bad thing. I'm always amazed seeing the mountain of stuff that My Mate Vince fixes with his cheapy Surpeer.

So... err... the conclusion was the foot pedal was missing and the thing just didn't work without that?  A bit odd.  Less "Repair Shop" more "Read the Manual Shop".

HAhA ... I've just watched (and emulated) his Milwaukee Grinder "repair" - stroke very temporary fix  :palm:

By the looks of it, they use a Hantek scope at the repair shop. See around 5:49 and 6:09 in the video on the bench on the left of the sound effect machine.  ;D

Man, you guys are years ahead of us in your episodes.  Here they're still using VTVOMs and coal-heated soldering irons to fix things.
