***It didn't seem to get much business during the first 5 seasons. The only 

time TV repair was mentioned (that I recall) was when Barney brought 
George (Howard Morris) out to the lake to tell Helen about her set. I 
suppose it would be hard to get a set repaired or shop for a new one if 
there were no door to enter the store.***

Don't forget their was a first season episode revealing the town's undertaker, 
Orville Monroe, 
was also its TV repairman.  I think he was played by character actor Jonathan 
Hole.  I know his
character appeared in two other episodes but I think "Mayberry Goes Hollywood" 
was the only one
that addressed his business, and there's even a shot of him opening the 
tailgate of his hearse
and taking out a TV set.
