Does anyone have a recommendation for a radio repair shop? My BMC radio recently died; I would like to add some FM capabilities without altering the appearance of the radio. Many listings in Hemmings, but I would like to read anyone's personal experiences or dealings with repair shops.

Hey Rob,
I know that the guys on the forum can steer you to someone who will make the changes you need for your radio,But maybe you should consider keeping it original.I just got mine working last night and the old radio really helps set the mood back to 1965.It was cool!

I want to keep the original look of the radio, but adding a few FM stations will not alter the look. I've called a dozen or so radio repair shops in Memphis and all said "throw it away--get some thing modern." That is not going to happen. I would settle for just getting it repaired (AM only), but no luck on that front either. I was told by the PO that it is the original radio when the car left the dealership in Jackson, Florida. I would be most grateful for repair shop recommendations outside of Memphis.
