Title: Harbach Electronics Has Closed Permanently
Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on March 31, 2024, 03:04:13 AM
ANNOUNCEMENT on Harbach Electronics web site:

***Harbach Electronics Closed Permanently***

28 March 2024:  Due to being diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease, Harbach Electronics will be permanently closed. I am exploring options for someone to keep the business going and if that works out, great, if not, it has been a great run for 27 years since I took over from Al Harbach, WA4DRU.  I am officially closed and any outstanding orders will be cancelled and refunded. I am leaving work on a medical retirement and moving to Florida. 73 Jeff W8CQ

  Thoughts and prayers for Jeff, first and foremost, and secondly, regrets over the loss of another excellent business that has served the amateur community so well. I've ordered a number of items from him to support my SB221 and SB200 over the years, but procrastinated on ordering filter cap kits for both, unfortunately.

This just in:
***Harbach Electronics Closed Temporarily***
31 March 2024:  Due to being diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease, Harbach Electronics will be temporarily closed. Scott, KB1SEL (amprepairguy.com) will be taking over Harbach Electronics. Scott will do an excellent job of carrying on the Harbach Electronics name and reputation! I am working through small pending orders as I am able.  Large orders which I am having trouble with will be canceled and refunded via the method of purchase.  I will try to have the transition to Scott move as quickly as possible but please give Scott and myself some time to get this all worked out as it has happened so quickly. 73 Jeff W8CQ

KB1SEL is a serious amplifier guy. From what I read he does a lot of repair and build of some rather large amplifiers. My only hope he doesn't cut himself too thin from both businesses! Good luck to both Jeff and Scott!
