Fair comments. I had assumed that such a technician might be paid on a
per-unit basis, or a percentage of the service bill. Stocking of parts
might be a real problem, but even if the tech had to order the parts
from W'ville, the turnaround would have to be better

If they get enough repair volume that it's economical to employ an
engineer and stock spare parts at a second location, that sounds like
a good idea.
I worry they might not have the volume, or that the logistics would be
more hassle than the benefit.

I think it's time for Elecraft to consider empowering someone on the
East coast to service their major products (radios and amps). With
two
weeks burned sending gear to and from Watsonville on every service
situation, the right East coast technician could do wonders for
Elecraft's service reputation here. I can't imagine that the service
business is *that* attractive
