Where can one get PVS-7B's serviced in Georgia? Any local shops around ATL?
TIA! |
| I'm looking for a clean/purge/collimate at a minimum and possibly replacing the tube if the rest of the unit checks out and if I can find an clean, affordable autogated one. These are my "spares" so don't have to be perfect, but I'm looking to get rid of the spots and chicken wire and hoping I can find something autogated. |

Must be nice to have "spares"... Life ain't fair like that. When I was young and could actually do something I didn't have anything. Now that I'm old, fat and blind I've got a little bit of stuff. Every time I put it on I hurt the next morning. Wanna trade your youth? ;-) |

Honestly if your have spotting and chicken wire it's probably bordering on new tube time (depending on how bad)
The cleaning is probably in order, but the spotting is indicative either excessive exposure to light, or extreme amounts of use, if they aren't resolving enough to be able to actually identify things while using them it is definitely time to replace if money isn't a huge issue, I'd say get a new tube. I'd offer to test em and fix me up for you, but in all reality I'd have to order new parts from a commercial source and it would end up costing more than just sending them off. Last time I checked, a new autogated tube will cost you nearly as much as a new set would. I used to fix/rebuild 7s along with all of the other gun/fun stuff I did, but a wife and kids have meant recovering my money from repair parts and not reinvesting it in replacements. |
