Except for a few customers, who insisted on retaining the old technology from ideational values, hardly anyone could fix it. Due to wage side costs and realistic, minimal profit-oriented pricing, it was just too expensive for people. If, for example, a repair of the high-voltage power supply of a television (replacement of line transformer, driver transisor and various capacitors and resistors) a price of about 90 euros assumed, that was again borderline, almost too expensive. If one considers that for these sum the parts scarcely 40 euro in the EK cost, then for the remaining 50 euro the error had to be searched for and found, everything to be expanded and reinstalled.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><a style=\"clear: right;float: right;margin-bottom: 1em;margin-left: 1em\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.fh-kaernten.at\/ingmarsretro\/files\/2015\/01\/dsc000191.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.fh-kaernten.at\/ingmarsretro\/files\/2015\/01\/dsc000191.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"160\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify\">The unit had to be cleaned inside (often we got &#8222;boxes that collected the dust and nicotine of twenty years&#8220;.)
